On success, the number of bytes read into the buffer is returned.
It is not an error if this is not the same as the requested size, as it
can happen e.g. near the end of a file. Zero is returned on end of file
(or if count is zero), but never otherwise.
The returned buffer is not a nul-terminated string, it can contain nul bytes
at any position, and this function doesn't nul-terminate the buffer.
If cancellable is not null, then the operation can be cancelled by
triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation
was cancelled, the error gio.types.IOErrorEnum.Cancelled will be returned. If an
operation was partially finished when the operation was cancelled the
partial result will be returned, without an error.
On error -1 is returned and error is set accordingly.
Tries to read count bytes from the stream into the buffer starting at buffer. Will block during this read.
If count is zero returns zero and does nothing. A value of count larger than G_MAXSSIZE will cause a gio.types.IOErrorEnum.InvalidArgument error.
