serde_pipe 0.1.3

Turn serde+bincode into a pipe: push `T`s and pull `u8`s, or vice versa. This library gives you a `Serializer` pipe, into which you can push `T`s and pull `u8`s; and a `Deserializer` pipe, into which you can push `u8`s and pull `T`s.

[Docs](https://docs.rs/serde_pipe/0.1.3)

Turn serde+bincode into a pipe: push `T`s and pull `u8`s, or vice versa.

This library gives you a `Serializer` pipe, into which you can push `T`s and pull `u8`s; and a `Deserializer` pipe, into which you can push `u8`s and pull `T`s.

This by default works by allocating a vector to hold the intermediate `u8`s. However the `fringe` feature can be enabled, which uses [libfringe](https://github.com/edef1c/libfringe) to turn serde+bincode into a Generator, resulting in bounded memory usage.

## Example

```rust
use serde_pipe::Serializer;

let large_vector = (0..1u64<<30).collect::<Vec<_>>();
let mut serializer = Serializer::new();
serializer.push().unwrap()(large_vector);

while let Some(pull) = serializer.pull() {
	let byte = pull();
	println!("byte! {}", byte);
}
```

## Note

The `fringe` feature depends on [libfringe](https://github.com/edef1c/libfringe), and so enabling it inherits these limitations:
 * Rust nightly is required for the `asm` and `naked_functions` features;
 * The architectures currently supported are: x86, x86_64, aarch64, or1k;
 * The platforms currently supported are: bare metal, Linux (any libc), FreeBSD, DragonFly BSD, macOS. Windows is not supported.
