Provides the following:

• a trait StaticVersionType for constraining to a version (major.minor) at compile-time.
  • sealed to a struct StaticVersion<const MAJOR: u16, const MINOR: u16>.
  • for the purposes of version enforcement, patch versions are not treated as a type change.
• a struct Version for runtime operations against a version, without requiring dyn
  • used to [de]serialize a version in a strictly defined and immutable form, so that updates to the serialization format iteself can be a version controlled property.
  • does not include patch level, prerelease identifiers, or build metadata; this is not intended to be a general purpose semver crate.
• a trait BinarySerializer, an adaptor that can be implemented around any data format that adapts the serde data model.
  • by default, serializes a version prefix before each top-level serialization, and verifies version compatibility when deserializing the serialized message.
  • supports unversioned [de]serialize_no_version operations, which, by default, should simply be the same as calling type.serialize(serializer) for the embedded serializer.
• implementations against existing data formats
  • currently, only bincode
