NAME
       buffer_fromsa - initialize buffer structure from stralloc

SYNTAX
       #include <buffer.h>

       void buffer_fromsa(buffer* b,stralloc* sa);

DESCRIPTION
       buffer_fromsa  makes a virtual read buffer from a stralloc.  The buffer reading functions will be able to read until the end of the data in
       the stralloc, then signal EOF.  The buffer does not have its own buffer space, it reuses the one in the stralloc.

       Do not touch the stralloc until your are done with the buffer!  In particular, do not call stralloc_free on it!

       Reading data from the buffer will not change the stralloc.
