/**
 * The `string_decoder` module provides an API for decoding `Buffer` objects into
 * strings in a manner that preserves encoded multi-byte UTF-8 and UTF-16
 * characters. It can be accessed using:
 *
 * ```js
 * const { StringDecoder } = require('string_decoder');
 * ```
 *
 * The following example shows the basic use of the `StringDecoder` class.
 *
 * ```js
 * const { StringDecoder } = require('string_decoder');
 * const decoder = new StringDecoder('utf8');
 *
 * const cent = Buffer.from([0xC2, 0xA2]);
 * console.log(decoder.write(cent));
 *
 * const euro = Buffer.from([0xE2, 0x82, 0xAC]);
 * console.log(decoder.write(euro));
 * ```
 *
 * When a `Buffer` instance is written to the `StringDecoder` instance, an
 * internal buffer is used to ensure that the decoded string does not contain
 * any incomplete multibyte characters. These are held in the buffer until the
 * next call to `stringDecoder.write()` or until `stringDecoder.end()` is called.
 *
 * In the following example, the three UTF-8 encoded bytes of the European Euro
 * symbol (`€`) are written over three separate operations:
 *
 * ```js
 * const { StringDecoder } = require('string_decoder');
 * const decoder = new StringDecoder('utf8');
 *
 * decoder.write(Buffer.from([0xE2]));
 * decoder.write(Buffer.from([0x82]));
 * console.log(decoder.end(Buffer.from([0xAC])));
 * ```
 * @see [source](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v17.0.0/lib/string_decoder.js)
