+/**
+ * HeaderReader parses mail headers from a buffer.
+ * The input is fed in via Parse(), and a callback function is invoked for
+ * each header encountered.
+ *
+ * General goals:
+ *
+ * - Incremental. Parse() can be called multiple times as a buffer grows.
+ * - Works in-place. Headers are returned as byte ranges within the data.
+ * - Works with a partial header block (e.g. sniffing the first N bytes
+ * of a message file). It won't mistakenly emit an incomplete header.
+ * - Track exact byte offsets for values, to support rewriting headers in
+ * place. This is needed to support X-Mozilla-Status et al.
+ * - Avoids copying data where possible.
+ * - Callback is inlined.
+ * - Callback can halt processing (by returning false).
+ * - Tolerant of real-world oddness in input data (for now, we just skip
+ * lines which don't make sense).
+ *
+ * Example usage:
+ * nsCString raw = "To: Alice\r\nFrom: Bob\r\n\r\n...Message body..."_ns;
+ * auto cb = [&](HeaderReader::Header const& hdr) {
+ * printf("-> '%s':'%s'\n", hdr.Name(raw), hdr.Value(raw));
+ * return true;
+ * };
+ *
+ * HeaderReader rdr;
+ * rdr.Parse(raw, cb);
+ * // -> 'To':'Alice'
+ * // -> 'From':'Bob'
+ *
+ * See TestHeaderReader.cpp for more examples.
+ */

+ public:
+ /**
+ * Parse() scans an input buffer and invokes a callback for each complete
+ * header found.
+ *
+ * It can be called any number of times - it'll pick up where it left off.
+ * The idea is that the caller can accumulate data in multiple chunks and
+ * call Parse() to extract headers incrementally as they come in.
+ * It does rely on data being a single contiguous allocation, but it
+ * doesn't require the data being located in the same memory location
+ * each time. So can it can be safely used on a growable buffer.
+ *
+ * Signature of callback is:
+ * bool hdrCallback(HeaderReader::Hdr const& hdr);
+ *
+ * The callback should return true to continue parsing, or false to halt.
+ * This allows, for example, an early-out if you're scanning for one
+ * specific header and don't care about the rest.
+ *
+ * Parse() stops when one of these conditions is true:
+ * 1. The end of the header block is reached (the final blank line marker
+ * is consumed). Subsequent calls to IsComplete() will return true.
+ * 2. The callback returns false. If Parse() is called again, it will
+ * safely pick up where it left off.
+ * 3. No more headers can be read. There may be some unconsumed data
+ * returned (eg a partial line). Parse() can be safely called again
+ * when more data becomes available. It will resume from the point it
+ * reached previously.
+ *
+ * It is safe to call Parse() on a truncated header block. It will only
+ * invoke the callback for headers which are unambiguously complete.
+ *
+ * @param data - bytes containing the header block to parse.
+ * @param hdrCallback - callback to invoke for each header found
+ *
+ * @returns a span containing the unconsumed (leftover) data.
