TiffDataSource

Random-access byte source over a TIFF container. A tiled GeoTIFF is read block-by-block on demand — never slurped whole — so the same 2 GB orthophoto that would blow the heap as a ByteArray streams one 256×256 tile at a time through this seam.

Implementations must tolerate concurrent read calls: pyramid tiles decode in parallel on the IO dispatcher, so a stateful backend (a file handle with a seek position) has to serialize internally.

read returns at most length bytes and fewer only at end-of-source; callers treat a short read as a truncated file.
