This introduces a slightly more generic variant of WriteBuffer().
Notably, this variant doesn't constrain the arguments to only accepting
std::vector instances. It accepts whatever adheres to the
ContiguousContainer concept in the C++ standard library.
This essentially means, std::array, std::string, and std::vector can be
used directly with this interface. The interface no longer forces you to
solely use containers that dynamically allocate.
To ensure our overloads play nice with one another, we only enable the
container-based WriteBuffer if the argument is not a pointer, otherwise
we fall back to the pointer-based one.
Previously, the buffer_index parameter was unused, causing all writes to
use the buffer index of zero, which is not necessarily what is wanted
all the time.
Thankfully, all current usages don't use a buffer index other than zero,
so this just prevents a bug before it has a chance to spring.
We can avoid constructing a std::vector here by simply passing a pointer
to the original data and the size of the copy we wish to perform to the
backend's Write() function instead, avoiding copying the data where it's
otherwise not needed.
We were using a second std::vector as a buffer to convert another
std::vector's data into a byte sequence, however we can just use
pointers to the original data and use them directly with WriteBuffer,
which avoids copying the data at all into a separate std::vector.
We simply cast the pointers to u8* (which is allowed by the standard,
given std::uint8_t is an alias for unsigned char on platforms that we
support).
Previously we were just copying the data whole-sale, even if the length
was less than the total data size. This effectively makes the
actual_data vector useless, which is likely not intended.
Instead, amend this to only copy the given length amount of data.
At the same time, we can avoid zeroing out the data before using it by
passing iterators to the constructor instead of a size.
This would result in a lot of allocations and related object
construction, just to toss it all away immediately after the call.
These are definitely not intentional, and it was intended that all of
these should have been accessing the static function GetInstance()
through the name itself, not constructed instances.
