Detailed Description

This Encoder shares a lot in common with protobufs.  It uses variable length
ints and size-encoded strings and binary values.  Other than being hugely
stripped down, the major conceptual difference is that this encoding
is UTF8 "safe".  This means that it generates a form that should be passed
on the wire as UTF8 and then can be very efficiently decoded by JS in the
browser which natively handles these kinds of strings.  To stay efficient in
this range, all numeric data is encoded in only 7 bits.
