Here's what I landed on for the TLS client. It's 16896 bytes
(max_ciphertext_record_len is 16640). I believe this is the theoretical
minimum size, give or take a few bytes.
These constraints are satisfied:
* a call to the readvAdvanced() function makes at most one call to the
underlying readv function
* iovecs are provided by the API, and used by the implementation for
underlying readv() calls to the socket
* the theoretical minimum number of memcpy() calls are issued in all
circumstances
* decryption is only performed once for any given TLS record
* large read buffers are fully exploited
This is accomplished by using the partial read buffer to storing both
cleartext and ciphertext.
