Review Comment:
   BinaryDecoder::doDecodeItemCount() casts the decoded int64 block count 
directly to size_t. On 32-bit builds (or any build where size_t is narrower 
than int64_t), large counts can truncate/wrap, which can bypass the downstream 
structural caps and lead to incorrect decoding (treating a huge block as a 
small one). Please reject counts that do not fit into size_t before returning.

Review Comment:
   StreamReader::remainingBytes() computes `end_ - next_` even when 
`next_`/`end_` are null right after init()/reset(). Subtracting null pointers 
is undefined behavior, and callers can trigger it via Decoder::bytesRemaining() 
immediately after init(). Please guard the pointer subtraction and treat the 
buffered count as 0 when no buffer has been filled yet.
