Appreciate the endorsement!

I did in fact borrow some of that test data directly, though there's an 
interesting divergence in the TypeScript version of the packing algorithm 
so I wound up editing segmented-packed by hand to 
match: https://github.com/jdiaz5513/capnp-ts/pull/10.

Still making slow but steady progress writing tests and finding broken 
stuff. I'll publish to npm once the serialization part isn't so... broken.
