An implementation of the [WHATWG Encoding Standard][] `TextDecoder` API.

```js
const decoder = new TextDecoder('shift_jis');
let string = '';
let buffer;
while (buffer = getNextChunkSomehow()) {
string += decoder.decode(buffer, { stream: true });
}
string += decoder.decode(); // end-of-stream
const decoder = new TextDecoder();
const u8arr = new Uint8Array([72, 101, 108, 108, 111]);
console.log(decoder.decode(u8arr)); // Hello
```
