The API: int read4(char *buf) reads 4 characters at a time from a file.
The return value is the actual number of characters read. For example, it returns 3 if there is only 3 characters left in the file.
By using the read4 API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n) that reads n characters from the file.
Note:
The read function may be called multiple times.

read方法会被调用多次的难点在于如何处理read4读取出来的内容有剩余的情况?假设文件中有4个字符,我们调用4次read(1),通过一次read4把4个字符全部读取,如何让每次read只读1个字符? 方案就是读完后做标记,read4读出来的相当于文件到输出的缓冲区,标记缓冲区当前位置以及字符总数,每次read从缓冲区当前位置开始读取所需字符数。
