Description

I suggest adding utility methods for buffering streams and writers to the IOUtils class. The methods would have the following signatures:

BufferedInputStream buffer(InputStream inputStream)
BufferedOutputStream buffer(OutputStream outputStream)
BufferedReader buffer(Reader reader)
BufferedWriter buffer(Writer writer)

Issue Links

• is duplicated by: IO-330 IOUtils#toBufferedOutputStream/toBufferedWriter to conditionally wrap the output
• is related to: IO-313 Add IOUTils.toBufferedReader(Reader)
