Detailed Description

Slight variation (and simplification) of std::istream_iterator and std::ostream_iterator.

You *MUST* use this when reading binary data for (un)serializing.

The reason why the ordinary iterator does not work is that it uses "mystream >> byteToRead" which skips over whitespace (!) - this one uses "mystream.get(byteToRead)".

Additionally, because it makes use of peek() this implementation allows mixing of Serial*streamIterator with calls to read() on the respective stream, without any problems. (This does not work with GCC's version, which uses get().)
