Easy way to create a Stream that is both readable and writable.

* Pass in optional write and end methods.
* through takes care of pause/resume logic if you use this.queue(data) instead of this.emit('data', data).
* Use this.pause() and this.resume() to manage flow.
* Check this.paused to see current flow state. (write always returns !this.paused).

This function is the basis for most of the synchronous streams in event-stream.

`` js
var through = require('@ljharb/through')

through(function write(data) {
this.queue(data) //data must not be null
},
function end () { //optional
this.queue(null)
})
`

Or, can also be used _without_ buffering on pause, use this.emit('data', data),
and this.emit('end')

` js
var through = require('@ljharb/through')

through(function write(data) {
this.emit('data', data)
//this.pause()
},
function end () { //optional
this.emit('end')
})
`

Extended Options

You will probably not need these 99% of the time.

$3

By default, through emits close when the writable
and readable side of the stream has ended.
If that is not desired, set autoDestroy=false.

` js
var through = require('@ljharb/through')

//like this
var ts = through(write, end, {autoDestroy: false})
//or like this
var ts = through(write, end)
ts.autoDestroy = false
