            @ref error::need_buffer will be returned from @ref serializer::get
            Otherwise, the serializer will use the memory pointed to
            by `data` having `size` octets of valid storage as the
            next buffer representing the body.

            If this is `nullptr`, the error @ref error::need_buffer
            will be returned from @ref parser::put. Otherwise, the
            parser will store body octets into the memory pointed to
            by `data` having `size` octets of valid storage. After
            octets are stored, the `data` and `size` members are
            adjusted: `data` is incremented to point to the next
            octet after the data written, while `size` is decremented
            to reflect the remaining space at the memory location
            pointed to by `data`.

            is ignored. Otherwise, it represents the number of valid
            body octets pointed to by `data`.

            @par When Parsing

            to indicate the number of remaining free octets in the
            buffer pointed to by `data`. When it reaches zero, the
            parser will return @ref error::need_buffer, indicating to
            the caller that the values of `data` and `size` should be
            updated to point to a new memory buffer.
