The idea is that buffers which aren't yet sent will be referenced
in ctx->busy, and once fully sent, they will be moved to ctx->free
and can be reused. If your body filter was called and there are
no buffers in ctx->free (and you've exhausted all the configured
buffers), you simply call ngx_http_next_body_filter() with NULL
chain and then call ngx_chain_update_chains() to see if there are
any buffers which can be reused. And if there are still no
buffers to use, you simply return NGX_AGAIN to wait for additional
write events. Check the ctx->nomem case in the gzip filter for
additional details.
