This is the sort of thing a good stream API should be able to handle
efficiently, i.e. methods to read/write various binary data types like
integers. Or alternatively, an API to encode/decode those types into an
ArraySlice (like Go’s encoding/binary package.)
Hopefully these can be added to the Swift standard library. In the interim,
something like that Go package could be implemented with some small C functions
callable from Swift.
