// Package codec provides types that implement encoding.BinaryMarshaler and
// encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler and functions that help to encode and decode
// primitives. The Prometheus storage backend uses them to persist objects to
// files and to save objects in LevelDB.
//
// The encodings used in this package are designed in a way that objects can be
// unmarshaled from a continuous byte stream, i.e. the information when to stop
// reading is determined by the format. No separate termination information is
// needed.
//
// Strings are encoded as the length of their bytes as a varint followed by
// their bytes.
//
// Slices are encoded as their length as a varint followed by their elements.
//
// Maps are encoded as the number of mappings as a varint, followed by the
// mappings, each of which consists of the key followed by the value.
