Variable length integer? #469

Closed yanshay closed 2 months ago

Is there a way to specify that the number of bytes (or bits) of an integer is an expression? So for example, to specify that the length depends on a preceding bit somewhere in the structure? if it is 1 then the integer is u32 otherwise it is u8?
