Replace bencode with MessagePack #12

Closed jimporter closed 4 years ago

I don't know if I'm actually going to do this, but MessagePack seems to basically be "bencode, but better" (and with wider support). Also, I'd get real booleans!

After considering it for a long while, I think MessagePack is actually too complex for mettle's needs. A simple header-only serialization format is plenty, and keeps the build simple.
