/**
 * Provides the structured interface through which a {@link BackupAgent} commits
 * information to the backup data set, via its {@link
 * BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor,BackupDataOutput,ParcelFileDescriptor)
 * onBackup()} method.  Data written for backup is presented
 * as a set of "entities," key/value pairs in which each binary data record "value" is
 * named with a string "key."
 * <p>
 * To commit a data record to the backup transport, the agent's
 * {@link BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor,BackupDataOutput,ParcelFileDescriptor)
 * onBackup()} method first writes an "entity header" that supplies the key string for the record
 * and the total size of the binary value for the record.  After the header has been
 * written, the agent then writes the binary entity value itself.  The entity value can
 * be written in multiple chunks if desired, as long as the total count of bytes written
 * matches what was supplied to {@link #writeEntityHeader(String, int) writeEntityHeader()}.
 * <p>
 * Entity key strings are considered to be unique within a given application's backup
 * data set. If a backup agent writes a new entity under an existing key string, its value will
 * replace any previous value in the transport's remote data store.  You can remove a record
 * entirely from the remote data set by writing a new entity header using the
 * existing record's key, but supplying a negative <code>dataSize</code> parameter.
 * When you do so, the agent does not need to call {@link #writeEntityData(byte[], int)}.
 * <h3>Example</h3>
 * <p>
 * Here is an example illustrating a way to back up the value of a String variable
 * called <code>mStringToBackUp</code>:
 * <pre>
 * static final String MY_STRING_KEY = "storedstring";
 *
 * public void {@link BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor, BackupDataOutput, ParcelFileDescriptor) onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor oldState, BackupDataOutput data, ParcelFileDescriptor newState)}
 *         throws IOException {
 *     ...
 *     byte[] stringBytes = mStringToBackUp.getBytes();
 *     data.writeEntityHeader(MY_STRING_KEY, stringBytes.length);
 *     data.writeEntityData(stringBytes, stringBytes.length);
 *     ...
 * }</pre>
