Comment (by manish.earth):
Probably a thin wrapper around VecDeque<u8> would work better; Bytes seems
to itself be a growable buffer (which also does stuff like reference
counting).
Looking at the C API in buffers.h there doesn't seem to be any reason why
we can't expose the same API.
(I don't mind taking a crack at this if I get the time, but I also don't
want to take the place of someone who wants to learn Rust/Rust FFI through
this exercise)
