In context of the synchronizations in this class, does a single instance of
`FileChannelIterator` gets accessed concurrently? I haven't fully grasped the
publisher/subscriber model through which this `FileChannelIterator` instance
would be handed out and how that then ends up as a `BodyPublisher` that's
accessed by the application.
