/*! The Chunks class is the storage backend for QHexEdit.
 *
 * When QHexEdit loads data, Chunks access them using a QIODevice interface. When the app uses
 * a QByteArray interface, QBuffer is used to provide again a QIODevice like interface. No data
 * will be changed, therefore Chunks opens the QIODevice in QIODevice::ReadOnly mode. After every
 * access Chunks closes the QIODevice, that's why external applications can overwrite files while
 * QHexEdit shows them.
 *
 * When the the user starts to edit the data, Chunks creates a local copy of a chunk of data (4
 * kilobytes) and notes all changes there. Parallel to that chunk, there is a second chunk,
 * which keep track of which bytes are changed and which not.
 *
