Description:
 def _buffer_decode(self, input, errors, final):
 """ Decode bytes that may be arriving in a stream, following the Codecs API. `input` is the incoming sequence of bytes. `errors` tells us how to handle errors, though we delegate all error-handling cases to the real UTF-8 decoder to ensure correct behavior. `final` indicates whether this is the end of the sequence, in which case we should raise an error given incomplete input. Returns as much decoded text as possible, and the number of bytes consumed. """
