self documenting.

NULL, set *afterp to point to the character immediately following the substring. Otherwise
return 0.
This function is used to parse HTTP headers and responses, which are typically not
nul-terminated, but are held in a buffer which has an associated length. To avoid this function
running past the end of the buffer, the caller must ensure that the buffer contains a sub-string
that is not part of the sub-string being sought, eg, "\r\n\r\n" as detected by
http_header_complete(). This guarantees that this function will return nonzero before running
past the end of the buffer.
