`Usage
Simple example to create a new empty Buffer stream:
js
const ByteStream = require('bytewriter')
const stream = new ByteStream()
stream.writeStringNT("hello world!") // write a string with a null term at end
const buffer = stream.getBuffer()
console.assert(buffer.equals(Buffer.from('hello world!\0'))
`Load an existing one:
js
const BinaryStream = require('bytewriter')
const stream = new BinaryStream(Buffer.from('10 10 10', 'hex'))
const a = stream.readUInt8()
const b = stream.readUInt16()
