##### Description

This implements a ConstBufferSequence representing a chunk. The serialized format is as follows:

    chunk           = chunk-size [ chunk-ext ] CRLF chunk-data CRLF
    chunk-size      = 1*HEXDIG
    chunk-ext       = *( ";" chunk-ext-name [ "=" chunk-ext-val ] )
    chunk-ext-name  = token
    chunk-ext-val   = token / quoted-string
    chunk-data      = 1*OCTET ; a sequence of chunk-size octets

The chunk extension is optional. To use this class, pass an instance of it to a stream algorithm as the buffer sequence.
