Common Data Representation serialization and deserialization library

import { EncapsulationKind } from "./EncapsulationKind";
/**
 * Excerpt:
 * PLAIN_CDR2 shall be used for all primitive, strings, and enumerated types. It is also
 * used for any type with extensibility kind FINAL. The encoding is similar to
 * PLAIN_CDR except that INT64, UINT64, FLOAT64, and FLOAT128 are serialized into
 * the CDR buffer at offsets that are aligned to 4 rather than 8 as was the case in
 * PLAIN_CDR.
 *
 * DELIMITED_CDR shall be used for types with extensibility kind APPENDABLE. It
 * serializes a UINT32 delimiter header (DHEADER) before serializing the object using
 * PLAIN_CDR2. The delimiter encodes the endianness and the length of the serialized
 * object that follows.
 *
 * PL_CDR2 shall be used for aggregated types with extensibility kind MUTABLE.
 * Similar to DELIMITED_CDR it also serializes a DHEADER before serializing the
 * object. In addition it serializes a member header (EMHEADER) ahead each serialized
 * member. The member header encodes the member ID, the must-understand flag, and
 * length of the serialized member that follows.
