I noticed DecoderReader holds its internal buffer of bytes. This has a number of disadvantages:

• Needless copying from in-memory readers (slices)
• Double-buffering already-buffered readers
• The bytes are lost when dropping or calling into_inner
• BUF_SIZE is not configurable
• std::io::BufReader has access to some unstable optimizations which this crate cannot use
• Reinvents the wheel; there already is std::io::BufReader

Unless I'm missing something this can be easily fixed just by requiring BufRead instead of Read and using it. It's a breaking change so it's better to do it before 1.0.

Related: maybe it itself could provide BufRead but I'm not sure if 3-byte buffer is fine or not.
