/// Compute the exact number of bytes [`to_writer_streaming`] would write for
/// `value`, without producing them.
///
/// This is the dual of [`to_writer_streaming`]: the length is generated by the
/// *same* encoder, with a counting sink in place of a real writer, so it is
/// correct by construction and cannot drift from what the streaming serializer
/// actually emits. It is **not** the dual of [`to_vec`](crate::to_vec), for two
/// reasons: a value containing an unknown-length container encodes differently
/// under `to_vec`, and like [`to_writer_streaming`] this function rejects it (see
/// below); and a tuple or fixed-size array of homogeneous scalars is a generic
/// array here where `to_vec` coalesces it into a typed array, so the two sizes
/// differ even though both encodings read back the same. Measure with this
/// function when the bytes will come from [`to_writer_streaming`], which is the
/// only pairing it guarantees.
///
/// The primary use is length-prefixed framing over a non-seekable transport
/// (e.g. a socket): measure the body, write the frame's length field, then stream
/// the body in a single pass with no intermediate `Vec<u8>`. Because both calls
/// share one encoder, the streamed body is exactly `serialized_size(value)` bytes
/// long — *provided `value` serializes identically on both passes*. That holds for
/// any pure `Serialize` impl; a value backed by external or interior-mutable state,
/// or mutated between the measure and the write, can change length between the two
/// passes and so corrupt the frame. The measure and the write must see the same
/// value.
///
/// Returns `u64` (not `usize`) to match the on-wire SIZE domain and stay
/// meaningful on 32-bit targets.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns the same error [`to_writer_streaming`] would for `value` — in
/// particular [`Error::Unsupported`](crate::Error::Unsupported) for an
/// unknown-length sequence (`serialize_seq(None)`) or map (`serialize_map(None)`).
/// A successful measure therefore guarantees the value is streamable: a
/// subsequent [`to_writer_streaming`] will not *reject* it. It does not guarantee
/// the write itself succeeds — an I/O error can still occur mid-body — so the
/// framing layer remains responsible for tearing down the connection on a
/// mid-body write failure.
///
/// # Cost
///
/// One traversal of the value through the encoder, writing into a counter with no
/// allocation and no byte movement (each write is an integer add). The cost
/// depends on which encoder path each leaf takes:
///
/// - A [`serialize_bytes`](serde::Serializer::serialize_bytes) body
///   (`&[u8]`, `serde_bytes::Bytes`, `ByteBuf`) or a
///   [`TypedSlice<T>`](crate::TypedSlice) body is **O(1)**: a single bulk write
///   becomes one `len += n`.
/// - A bare numeric `Vec<T>` (e.g. `Vec<u8>`, `Vec<f64>`) is **O(N)**: serde
///   drives it element-by-element, so the encoder still performs N conversions
///   and N write calls even though the counter discards the bytes.
/// - General nested structures (strings, maps, heterogeneous arrays) are
///   **O(payload)**: they must be walked to sum sizes.
///
/// For a guaranteed-O(1) measure of a large numeric body, encode it through a
/// single bulk write — a `&[u8]`/`serde_bytes` blob or a
/// [`TypedSlice<T>`](crate::TypedSlice). For a contiguous numeric slice whose
/// size is needed with no traversal at all, [`typed_slice_size`](crate::typed_slice_size)
/// is a closed-form alternative.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```rust
/// let data = vec![1u32, 2, 3];
/// let mut buf = Vec::new();
/// beve::to_writer_streaming(&mut buf, &data).unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(beve::serialized_size(&data).unwrap(), buf.len() as u64);
/// ```
///
/// Length-prefixed framing (single encode to output, zero intermediate buffer).
/// Wrap a raw transport (e.g. a `TcpStream`) in a [`BufWriter`](std::io::BufWriter)
/// so a nested body does not become one syscall per field:
///
/// ```rust
/// # use std::io::Write;
/// # fn frame<W: Write, T: serde::Serialize>(mut w: W, value: &T) -> beve::Result<()> {
/// let body_len: u64 = beve::serialized_size(value)?;
/// w.write_all(&body_len.to_le_bytes())?;          // advertise the body length
/// beve::to_writer_streaming(&mut w, value)?;       // emit exactly `body_len` bytes
/// # Ok(())
/// # }
