Currently:
A filter MUST NOT call the next filter with buf=NULL, len=0 except when it has reached EOF.
A filter MUST call the next filter with buf=NULL len=0 when it has reached EOF (ie after flushing it's buffers).

When I've gotten the code consistently using FILTER_EOF, this will become
A filter SHOULD NOT call the next filter with buf=NULL, len=0 except when it has reached EOF
A filter MUST call the next filter with flags |=FILTER_EOF when it has reached EOF (and this MAY be done with buf != NULL)
