chronix-core 0.1.0

//! Compact binary codec for WAL entries.
//!
//! All records use the binary v1 format (version-prefixed + `postcard`
//! serialisation of the variant fields). Legacy JSON is **not** supported.
//!
//! ## Wire format (v1)
//!
//! ```text
//! [1 byte  version = 0x01]
//! [1 byte  variant discriminant]
//! [N bytes postcard-encoded variant fields]
//! ```
//!
//! Discriminants:
//! - `0x00` → `WalEntry::Write { point }`
//! - `0x01` → `WalEntry::Delete { tombstones }`
//!
//! Schema changes are not WAL entries: the catalog manifest is their
//! durable record, and it is written before the data that needs them.
