 * Write a packetized stream, where each line is preceded by
 * its length (including the header) as a 4-byte hex number.
 * A length of 'zero' means end of stream (and a length of 1-3
 * would be an error).
 *
 * This is all pretty stupid, but we use this packetized line
 * format to make a streaming format possible without ever
 * over-running the read buffers. That way we'll never read
 * into what might be the pack data (which should go to another
 * process entirely).
 *
 * The writing side could use stdio, but since the reading
 * side can't, we stay with pure read/write interfaces.

 * function returns, src_buf will be incremented and src_len decremented by the
 * number of bytes consumed.
 *
 * If src_buffer (or *src_buffer) is NULL, then data is read from the

 *   4. Truncated output from the remote (e.g., we expected a packet but got
 *      EOF, or we got a partial packet followed by EOF).

 * If options does contain PACKET_READ_GENTLE_ON_EOF, we will not die on
 * condition 4 (truncated input), but instead return -1. However, we will still
 * die for the other 3 conditions.
