(* A blob is a one-byte constructor tag followed by its payload. The
   tag makes the encoding self-describing so [value_of_blob] can
   recover the constructor:
   - String  ['\000'] ++ raw utf-8 bytes
   - Integer ['\001'] ++ 8-byte big-endian int64 *)

(* A self-describing serialization used as the uniform wire format for
   durable objects. Chosen over an ad-hoc key=value scheme because it
   nests (a multigroup holds a map of relation hashes) and has a
   single byte form for a given value (dict keys are emitted sorted),
   which matters once these bytes are content-addressed.

   Grammar:
   - Int    "i" <decimal> "e" (negatives allowed)
   - String <length> ":" <raw bytes>
   - List   "l" <element>* "e"
   - Dict   "d" (<String key> <value>)* "e" keys sorted on encode *)
