This is my version of a new trait-based serialization. It's a pretty straightforward port to traits. I named it serialization2 as we'll need to do the snapshot-dance in order to replace the old serialization. After we get this into a snapshot, I'll upgrade ebml, json, and the auto serializer to use it.
Also, this patch includes a new rewrite of the io bytes writer to cut down on the copies, and replacing the unwieldy
str::raw::from_buf_len_nocopy
with astr::raw::form_slice
that matches the vec function.
