A thread-safe buffer for serializing and streaming class data.
While the queue and stack operate by managing lists of reference pointers to objects of various mixed kind, the buffer holds physical copies of objects that being passed through it, and all must be the same size. For this reason the buffer is normally used through the bufferof<type> template rather than stand-alone. The buffer is accessed in fifo order.
