H.264 NAL Unit Parser

This module exports a single generator function producing Uint8Arrays containing single Network Abstraction Layer units. Basic usage is as follows:

import parseNALUStream from 'h264-nalu-parser';

for (const nalu of parseNALUStream(data)) {
  /* Do stuff with an individual NAL unit. */
}

The data should also be provided as a Uint8Array, aligned on NALU boundaries.

Note that this will not work with H.264 data extracted from an MP4 file; the MP4 container format separates individual NALUs with 4-byte length headers, which this parser does not expect.
