/** A parser for decoding HTTP/1 wire format messages.

    This parser is designed to efficiently parse messages in the
    HTTP/1 wire format. It allocates no memory when input is
    presented as a single contiguous buffer, and uses minimal
    state. It will handle chunked encoding and it understands
    the semantics of the Connection, Content-Length, and Upgrade
    fields.
    The parser is optimized for the case where the input buffer
    sequence consists of a single contiguous buffer. The
    @ref beast::basic_flat_buffer class is provided, which guarantees
    that the input sequence of the stream buffer will be represented
    by exactly one contiguous buffer. To ensure the optimum performance
    of the parser, use @ref beast::basic_flat_buffer with HTTP algorithms
    such as @ref read, @ref read_some, @ref async_read, and @ref async_read_some.
    Alternatively, the caller may use custom techniques to ensure that
    the structured portion of the HTTP message (header or chunk header)
    is contained in a linear buffer.

    The interface to the parser uses virtual member functions.
    To use this class, derive your type from @ref basic_parser. When
    bytes are presented, the implementation will make a series of zero
    or more calls to virtual functions, which the derived class must
    implement.

    Every virtual function must be provided by the derived class,
    or else a compilation error will be generated. The implementation
    will make sure that `ec` is clear before each virtual function
    is invoked. If a virtual function sets an error, it is propagated
    out of the parser to the caller.

    @tparam isRequest A `bool` indicating whether the parser will be
    presented with request or response message.

    @note If the parser encounters a field value with obs-fold
    longer than 4 kilobytes in length, an error is generated.

        is not specified as the last encoding. In this case the end of
        message is determined by the end of file indicator on the
        associated stream or input source. If a sufficient number of
        body payload octets are presented to the parser to exceed the
        configured limit, the parse fails with the result
        @ref error::body_limit

        @li The Transfer-Encoding specifies the chunked encoding as the
        last encoding. In this case, when the number of payload body
        octets produced by removing the chunked encoding  exceeds
        the configured limit, the parse fails with the result
        @ref error::body_limit.
        
        Setting the limit after any body octets have been parsed
        results in undefined behavior.

        made forward progress, consuming that number of

        In some cases there may be an insufficient number of octets
        in the input buffer in order to make forward progress. This
        is indicated by the code @ref error::need_more. When

        if the buffers have been updated. Otherwise, upon error
        the parser may not be restarted.
