bstring

The bstring crate provides two types, bstr and BString, which implement str-like functions for byte strings with unknown encoding.

The bstring_macros crate provides the bformat! macro, which implements byte string formatting, similar to format!.

These types are intended to assist when implementing text-based protocols with no set character encoding.
