They are only used by the patch code. They are used while reading content
from the patch target which can either be in a file or in memory (in
case we're patching a property). So the stream abstraction is useful
there but the patch code also requires seeking capabilities.

We can make these APIs private if you like. Though I guess other clients
might find them useful, too. We'll have to support this code anyway
as part of the patch implementation.
