Detailed Description

A grpc_slice s, if initialized, represents the byte range s.bytes[0..s.length-1].

It can have an associated ref count which has a destruction routine to be run when the ref count reaches zero (see grpc_slice_new() and grp_slice_unref()). Multiple grpc_slice values may share a ref count.

If the slice does not have a refcount, it represents an inlined small piece of data that is copied by value.

As a special case, a slice can be given refcount == uintptr_t(1), meaning that the slice represents external data that is not refcounted.
