+ * A module to manage deferred, asynchronous writing of data files
+ * to disk. Writing is deferred by waiting for a specified delay after
+ * a request to save the data, before beginning to write. If more than
+ * one save request is received during the delay, all requests are
+ * fulfilled by a single write.
+ *
+ * @constructor
+ * @param aPath
+ * String representing the full path of the file where the data
+ * is to be written.
+ * @param aDataProvider
+ * Callback function that takes no argument and returns the data to
+ * be written. If aDataProvider returns an ArrayBufferView, the
+ * bytes it contains are written to the file as is.
+ * If aDataProvider returns a String the data are UTF-8 encoded
+ * and then written to the file.
+ * @param [optional] aDelay
+ * The delay in milliseconds between the first saveChanges() call
+ * that marks the data as needing to be saved, and when the DeferredSave
+ * begins writing the data to disk. Default 50 milliseconds.
