A new function, buffers(), returns an implementation defined object
which wraps a ConstBufferSequence and supports formatting to a
std::ostream.
The function to_string is removed, as the new implementation allows
conversion to string using boost::lexical_cast on the return value
of the call to buffers(). Streaming to an output stream is more
efficient: no dynamic allocations are performed.
Example:
streambuf sb;
std::cout << buffers(sb.data()) << std::endl;
