/** An HTTP/1 parser for producing a message.

    This class uses the basic HTTP/1 wire format parser to convert
    a series of octets into a @ref message using the @ref basic_fields
    container to represent the fields.

    @tparam isRequest Indicates whether a request or response
    will be parsed.

    @tparam Body The type used to represent the body. This must
    meet the requirements of <em>Body</em>.

    @tparam Allocator The type of allocator used with the
    @ref basic_fields container.

    @note A new instance of the parser is required for each message.

        chunk body including the octets in the buffer provided.
