/*
 * HTTP Container Read Semantics
 * =============================
 *
 * IMPORTANT: These semantics differ from standard BSD sockets!
 *
 * BSD socket read() returns:
 *   > 0: bytes read
 *   == 0: connection closed (EOF)
 *   < 0: error (check errno)
 *
 * HttpContainer::read() returns:
 *   > 0: bytes read successfully
 *   == 0: no data available yet OR all content read
 *         (caller should check bytes_read vs content_length)
 *   < 0: error or connection closed (caller should EXIT)
 *        HTTP_ERROR_CONNECTION_CLOSED (-1) = connection closed prematurely
 *        other negative values = platform-specific errors
 *
 * Platform behaviors:
 *   - ESP-IDF: blocking reads, 0 only returned when all content read
 *   - Arduino: non-blocking, 0 means "no data yet" or "all content read"
 *
 * Chunked responses that complete in a reasonable time work correctly on both
 * platforms. The limitation below applies only to *streaming* chunked
 * responses where data arrives slowly over a long period.
 *
 * Streaming chunked responses are NOT supported (all platforms):
 *   The read helpers (http_read_loop_result, http_read_fully) block the main
 *   event loop until all response data is received. For streaming responses
 *   where data trickles in slowly (e.g., TTS streaming via ffmpeg proxy),
 *   this starves the event loop on both ESP-IDF and Arduino. If data arrives
 *   just often enough to avoid the caller's timeout, the loop runs
 *   indefinitely. If data stops entirely, ESP-IDF fails with
 *   -ESP_ERR_HTTP_EAGAIN (transport timeout) while Arduino spins with
 *   delay(1) until the caller's timeout fires. Supporting streaming requires
 *   a non-blocking incremental read pattern that yields back to the event
 *   loop between chunks. Components that need streaming should use
 *   esp_http_client directly on a separate FreeRTOS task with
 *   esp_http_client_is_complete_data_received() for completion detection
 *   (see audio_reader.cpp for an example).
 *
 * Chunked transfer encoding - platform differences:
 *   - ESP-IDF HttpContainer:
 *       HttpContainerIDF overrides is_read_complete() to call
 *       esp_http_client_is_complete_data_received(), which is the
 *       authoritative completion check for both chunked and non-chunked
 *       transfers. When esp_http_client_read() returns 0 for a completed
 *       chunked response, read() returns 0 and is_read_complete() returns
 *       true, so callers get COMPLETE from http_read_loop_result().
 *
 *   - Arduino HttpContainer:
 *       Chunked responses are decoded internally (see
 *       HttpContainerArduino::read_chunked_()). When the final chunk arrives,
 *       is_chunked_ is cleared and content_length is set to bytes_read_.
 *       Completion is then detected via is_read_complete(), and a subsequent
 *       read() returns 0 to indicate "all content read" (not
 *       HTTP_ERROR_CONNECTION_CLOSED).
 *
 * Use the helper functions below instead of checking return values directly:
 *   - http_read_loop_result(): for manual loops with per-chunk processing
 *   - http_read_fully(): for simple "read N bytes into buffer" operations
