+// The versions of these methods that take a std::string argument are not

+// enough capacity for the number of additional bytes requested in addition to
+// existing content. The decoder knows the total expected output size in
+// advance, so one large ReserveAdditionalBytes() operation precedes many small
+// append() operations. For output types that gain no advantage from knowing in
+// advance how many bytes will be appended, ReserveAdditionalBytes() can be
+// defined to do nothing.
