1. There must be a way to look at underlying buffer w/o copying anything.
bulkRead would be useful for unbuffered streams. The input range

Then if unbuffered stream is an InputRange and it would by "default"
fallback to reading one byte (T.sizeof but anyhow) at a time .. sounds
scary. Might be cute but never what we'd want.
