// Manages file I/O for the media cache. Data comes in over the network
// via callbacks on the main thread, however we don't want to write the
// incoming data to the media cache on the main thread, as this could block
// causing UI jank. 
//
// So FileBlockCache provides an abstraction for a temporary file accessible
// as an array of blocks, which supports a block move operation, and
// allows synchronous reading and writing from any thread, with writes being
// buffered so as not to block.
//
// Writes and cache block moves (which require reading) are deferred to
// their own non-main thread. This object also ensures that data which has
// been scheduled to be written, but hasn't actually *been* written, is read
// as if it had, i.e. pending writes are cached in readable memory until
// they're flushed to file.
//
// To improve efficiency, writes can only be done at block granularity,
// whereas reads can be done with byte granularity.
//
// Note it's also recommended not to read from the media cache from the main
// thread to prevent jank.
//
// When WriteBlock() or MoveBlock() are called, data about how to complete
// the block change is added to mBlockChanges, indexed by block index, and
// the block index is appended to the mChangeIndexList. This enables
// us to quickly tell if a block has been changed, and ensures we can perform
// the changes in the correct order. An event is dispatched to perform the
// changes listed in mBlockChanges to file. Read() checks mBlockChanges and
// determines the current data to return, reading from file or from
// mBlockChanges as necessary.
