 - magic number: used to identify fury serialization protocol, current version 
use `0x62d4`.
 - null flag: 1 when object is null, 0 otherwise. If an object is null, other 
bits won't be set.
 - endian flag: 1 when data is encoded by little endian, 0 for big endian.
 - xlang flag: 1 when serialization uses xlang format, 0 when serialization 
uses Fury java format.
 - oob flag: 1 when passed `BufferCallback` is not null, 0 otherwise.
+- language: the language when serializing objects, such as JAVA, PYTHON, GO, 
etc.

Review Comment:
   Could we add a note that Fury can use this flag to determine whether spend 
more time on serialization to make the deserialization faster for dynamic 
languages.
