      The C++ driver should support partial file retrieval from a GridFS bucket as specified in the GridFS specification.
      This could be implemented by introducing an optional parameter offset to the read method of the mongocxx::gridfs::downloader class:

      std::size_t read (std::uint8_t *buffer, std::size_t length, std::size_t offset = 0);

      The default value ensures backwards compatibility.
