Description: 
        Chop a file into variable-length, content-based chunks.
        
        Example use:
        .. code-block:: python
        
            >>> import rolling_checksum_mod
            >>> with open('/tmp/big-file.bin', 'rb') as file_:
            >>>     for chunk in rolling_checksum_mod.min_max_chunker(file_):
            >>>         # chunk is now a piece of the data from file_, and it will not always have the same length.
            >>>         # Instead, it has the property that if you insert a byte at the beginning of /tmp/big-file.bin,
            >>>         # most of the chunks of the file will remain the same.  This can be nice for a deduplicating
            >>>         # backup program.
            >>>         print(len(chunk))
