In general, all .NET read primitives can read less bytes than "requested".

If bytes are not arriving fast the async read operation *should* return
a number of bytes less than BytesToRead.

If you need to wait until a certain number of bytes have arrived you
must copy those bytes into a buffer yourself and signal an event when
it's full.
