Change UnexpectedEnd to include the expected size #521
Description
Right now the enum variant of ErrorKind UnexpectedEnd is void. I suggest changing it to UnexpectedEnd(usize) so the caller will be able to know how much data it is missing for success.
This will allow development of stream protocols to be more efficient by reserving buffers & calling the decode only when data is complete.
More specifically, I'm now developing a actix-codec Encoder/Decoder and I'd wish to reserve the additional missing data before returning.
Thoughts?
