Comment(by ln5):

 Do we risk running out of data in fetch_from_evbuffer_socks()?

 {{{
 evbuffer_get_length() ==> left in buffer, total
 datalen = inspect_evbuffer() ==> available bytes to read atm
 }}}

 The while loop continues as long as there's more data than what was
 available earlier.

 What if datalen == 1 or even 0?

 1. datalen = v.iov_len and then the buffer is drained with as much as
    parse_socks() says it consumed

 2. if evbuffer_get_length() returns something >1 the while condition
    is true

 3. can inspect_evbuffer() return 0 or 1?
 {{{
    - 0: if want_length == 0 -- if first parse_socks() call set
      *want_length_out=0 -- won't happen
    - 0: if evbuffer_get_length() returns 0 -- won't happen since (2)
    - v.iov_len of the last chunk
    - something >= n -- never < 2
 }}}

 Can we have v.iov_len == 0 or 1?
