I have made some minor changes to make adaptors responsible for
allocating buffers. This made it possible to add a new adaptor
MemoryMapped and a sample[1] to show it off.
I have also verified that no buffer allocations happen while
reading using MemoryMapped.
Note that writing using memory mapping is still not possible.
