// FixedBuffer provides a simple way to allocate objects within a fixed chunk
// of memory. Objects are allocated by calling the |Allocate| method, which
// extends the buffer accordingly. Objects allocated in this way are not freed
// explicitly. Instead, they remain valid so long as the FixedBuffer remains
// valid.  The Leak method may be used to steal the underlying memory from the
// FixedBuffer.
//
// Typical usage:
//
//   {
//     FixedBuffer buf(8 + 8);
//
//     int* a = static_cast<int*>(buf->Allocate(sizeof(int)));
//     *a = 2;
//
//     double* b = static_cast<double*>(buf->Allocate(sizeof(double)));
//     *b = 3.14f;
//
//     void* data = buf.Leak();
//     Process(data);
//
//     free(data);
//   }
