/**
 * Warning: this API is not stable yet.
 *
 * Overview
 * --------
 *
 * This API can be used to make mpv read from a stream with a custom
 * implementation. This interface is inspired by funopen on BSD and
 * fopencookie on linux. The stream is backed by user-defined callbacks
 * which can implement customized open, read, seek, size and close behaviors.
 *
 * Usage
 * -----
 *
 * Register your stream callbacks with the mpv_stream_cb_add_ro() function. You
 * have to provide a mpv_stream_cb_open_ro_fn callback to it (open_fn argument).
 *
 * Once registered, you can `loadfile myprotocol://myfile`. Your open_fn will be
 * invoked with the URI and you must fill out the provided mpv_stream_cb_info
 * struct. This includes your stream callbacks (like read_fn), and an opaque
 * cookie, which will be passed as the first argument to all the remaining
 * stream callbacks.
 *
 * Note that your custom callbacks must not invoke libmpv APIs as that would
 * cause a deadlock. (Unless you call a different mpv_handle than the one the
 * callback was registered for, and the mpv_handles refer to different mpv
 * instances.)
 *
 * Stream lifetime
 * ---------------
 *
 * A stream remains valid until its close callback has been called. It's up to
 * libmpv to call the close callback, and the libmpv user cannot close it
 * directly with the stream_cb API.
 *
 * For example, if you consider your custom stream to become suddenly invalid
 * (maybe because the underlying stream died), libmpv will continue using your
 * stream. All you can do is returning errors from each callback, until libmpv
 * gives up and closes it.
 *
 * Protocol registration and lifetime
 * ----------------------------------
 *
 * Protocols remain registered until the mpv instance is terminated. This means
 * in particular that it can outlive the mpv_handle that was used to register
 * it, but once mpv_terminate_destroy() is called, your registered callbacks
 * will not be called again.
 *
 * Protocol unregistration is finished after the mpv core has been destroyed
 * (e.g. after mpv_terminate_destroy() has returned).
 *
 * If you do not call mpv_terminate_destroy() yourself (e.g. plugin-style code),
 * you will have to deal with the registration or even streams outliving your
 * code. Here are some possible ways to do this:
 * - call mpv_terminate_destroy(), which destroys the core, and will make sure
 *   all streams are closed once this function returns
 * - you refcount all resources your stream "cookies" reference, so that it
 *   doesn't matter if streams live longer than expected
 * - create "cancellation" semantics: after your protocol has been unregistered,
 *   notify all your streams that are still opened, and make them drop all
 *   referenced resources - then return errors from the stream callbacks as
 *   long as the stream is still opened
 *

 * return less bytes than requested, and libmpv will retry reading the rest

 * block until there is new data. A return of 0 will be interpreted as final
 * EOF, although libmpv might retry the read, or seek to a different position.
