dtype '|u1'?

[Fil]

Someone sent me a npy with '|u1', which results in an error. I had to add it in dtypes so that it would parse.

hexdump -C

Got it! Won't be able to add this for a while on my end, but if you PR it we can merge (and we'd be very appreciative!)

I've sent a PR.

I've also extracted the decoding function so I could use in the browser: https://observablehq.com/@fil/npyjs
