//! Utility functions to quickly encode and decode `&[u8]` to and from framed messages.
//!
//! Framed messages consist of the following items:
//!
//! ```txt
//! | len: u32 of data.len() | data: binary data |
//! ```
//!
//! The data stored after the length consists of the following items:
//!
//! ```txt
//! | checksum: [u8; 32] sha256 hash of `raw_data` | raw_data: &[u8] |
//! ```
