How can I add/get a raw buffer to/from IPFS?

[ferristseng]

There's a good example in the read me about how to do this. You'll probably want to take a look at these two methods:

• https://docs.rs/ipfs-api/0.4.0-alpha.3/ipfs_api/struct.IpfsClient.html#method.add
• https://docs.rs/ipfs-api/0.4.0-alpha.3/ipfs_api/struct.IpfsClient.html#method.get

@ferristseng Why does add require a 'static lifetime? I've been trying to add a freshly-built non-static buffer to IPFS for at least an hour now.

Nevermind, looks like I completely misunderstood how all this is meant to be used, Cursor<Vec> worked like a charm!
