/** Type alias for the underlying buffer type of a list of buffer sequence types.

    This metafunction is used to determine the underlying buffer type for
    a list of buffer sequence. The equivalent type of the alias will vary
    depending on the template type argument:

    @li If every type in the list is a <em>MutableBufferSequence</em>,
        the resulting type alias will be `net::mutable_buffer`, otherwise

    @li The resulting type alias will be `net::const_buffer`.

    @par Example
    The following code returns the first buffer in a buffer sequence,
    or generates a compilation error if the argument is not a buffer
    sequence:
    @code
    template <class BufferSequence>
    buffers_type <BufferSequence>
    buffers_front (BufferSequence const& buffers)
    {
        static_assert(
            net::is_const_buffer_sequence<BufferSequence>::value,
            "BufferSequence type requirements not met");
        auto const first = net::buffer_sequence_begin (buffers);
        if (first == net::buffer_sequence_end (buffers))
            return {};
        return *first;
    }
    @endcode

    @tparam BufferSequence A list of zero or more types to check. If this
    list is empty, the resulting type alias will be `net::mutable_buffer`.

    the buffer sequence.

/** Return the total number of bytes in a buffer or buffer sequence

    This function returns the total number of bytes in a buffer,
    buffer sequence, or object convertible to a buffer. Specifically
    it may be passed:

    @li A <em>ConstBufferSequence</em> or <em>MutableBufferSequence</em>

    @li A `net::const_buffer` or `net::mutable_buffer`

    @li An object convertible to `net::const_buffer`

    This function is designed as an easier-to-use replacement for
    `net::buffer_size`. It recognizes customization points found through
    argument-dependent lookup. The call `beast::buffer_bytes(b)` is
    equivalent to performing:
    @code
    using net::buffer_size;
    return buffer_size(b);
    @endcode
    In addition this handles types which are convertible to
    `net::const_buffer`; these are not handled by `net::buffer_size`.

    @param buffers The buffer or buffer sequence to calculate the size of.

    @return The total number of bytes in the buffer or sequence.
