// This class provides facilities for basic binary value packing and unpacking.
//
// The Pickle class supports appending primitive values (ints, strings, etc.)
// to a pickle instance. The Pickle instance grows its internal memory buffer
// dynamically to hold the sequence of primitive values. The internal memory
// buffer is exposed as the "data" of the Pickle. This "data" can be passed
// to a Pickle object to initialize it for reading.
//
// When reading from a Pickle object, it is important for the consumer to know
// what value types to read and in what order to read them as the Pickle does
// not keep track of the type of data written to it.
//
// The Pickle's data has a header which contains the size of the Pickle's
// payload. It can optionally support additional space in the header. That
// space is controlled by the header_size parameter passed to the Pickle
// constructor.
