Add serialization formats #11

Closed seancribbs closed 11 years ago

seancribbs commented 12 years ago

Each CRDT should define the on-the-wire and on-the-disk format for its internal structure; that is, it should be able to serialize and deserialize itself. This can potentially reduce the overhead of Erlang term format serialization and give the opportunity for compression.

The riak_dt behavior now has from_binary/1 and to_binary/1 callbacks which accomplish this task.
