Hi,

BuffersBuffer#mark() and BuffersBuffer#reset() throw currently
UnsupportedOperationException.

Could I know why they are not supported?

When I parsed packets, sometimes the input buffer of my filter could become
to be BuffersBuffer type if there was the remainder.

At that time, I got the exception if I used mark() and reset() methods.

So I stored the position of BuffersBuffer when I needed mark() and changed
current position into the stored position when I needed reset()
temporarily(It is the similar behavior to the HeapBuffer#mark() and
reset()).

If there were any issues about BuffersBuffer#mark() and reset(), I think
that I should also consider them again when I parses packets of
BuffersBuffer type.

So I would like to know the reason.

Thanks.
