Provides an input stream for reading binary data from a client request, including an efficient readLine
method for reading data one line at a time. With some protocols, such as HTTP POST and PUT, a
ServletInputStream object can be used to read data sent from the client.
A ServletInputStream object is normally retrieved via the ServletRequest.getInputStream method.
This is an abstract class that a servlet container implements. Subclasses of this class must implement the
java.io.InputStream.read() method.

Reads the input stream, one line at a time. Starting at an offset, reads bytes into an array, until it reads a
certain number of bytes or reaches a newline character, which it reads into the array as well.
This method returns -1 if it reaches the end of the input stream before reading the maximum number of bytes.
Params: - b – an array of bytes into which data is read
- off – an integer specifying the character at which this method begins reading
- len – an integer specifying the maximum number of bytes to read
Throws: - IOException – if an input or output exception has occurred
Returns: an integer specifying the actual number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the stream is reached
