 * \brief Convert a stream of packed bytes or shorts to stream of unpacked bytes or
 * shorts. \ingroup byte_operators_blk
 *
 * \details
 * input: stream of T; output: stream of T
 *
 * This is the inverse of gr::blocks::unpacked_to_packed_XX.
 *
 * The bits in the bytes or shorts input stream are grouped into
 * chunks of \p bits_per_chunk bits and each resulting chunk is
 * written right- justified to the output stream of bytes or
 * shorts. All b or 16 bits of the each input bytes or short are
 * processed. The right thing is done if bits_per_chunk is not a
 * power of two.
 *
 * The combination of gr::blocks::packed_to_unpacked_XX_ followed by
 * gr_chunks_to_symbols_Xf or gr_chunks_to_symbols_Xc handles the
 * general case of mapping from a stream of bytes or shorts into
 * arbitrary float or complex symbols.
