During a dependency review we noticed that the bytes crate includes various development scripts. These development scripts shouldn't be there as they might, at some point become problematic. As of now they prevent any downstream user from enabling the `[bans.build.interpreted]` option of cargo deny.
I opted for using an explicit include list instead of an exclude list to prevent these files from being included in the published packages to make sure that everything that's included is an conscious choice.
When `serde` is used, it would enable its default feature `std`.
This of course breaks no_std build.
Fix this by disabling serde's default features. This should work for
both serde + std and serde + no_std case.
Bytes is a useful tool for managing multiple slices into the same region
of memory, and the other things it used to have been removed to reduce
complexity. The exact strategy for managing the multiple references is
no longer hard-coded, but instead backing by a customizable vtable.
- Removed ability to mutate the underlying memory from the `Bytes` type.
- Removed the "inline" (SBO) mechanism in `Bytes`. The reduces a large
amount of complexity, and improves performance when accessing the
slice of bytes, since a branch is no longer needed to check if the
data is inline.
- Removed `Bytes` knowledge of `BytesMut` (`BytesMut` may grow that
knowledge back at a future point.)
To make the library work as `no_std` we add an `std` feature which
is on by default. When it is off, we compile as `no_std` and make
parts of the API that require `std::io` conditional on the `std`
feature.
