This is a NOP for existing usecases.
At the moment the only implemented transport for serialized SS is wsi, it's
typically used with Unix Domain Sockets, but it also works over tcp the
same.
It generalizes the interface between serialized chunks and the
transport, separately for client and proxy. The wsi transport is migrated
to use the new transport ops structs.
It will then be possible to "bring your own transport", so long as it is
reliable, and in-order, both for proxy and client / sspc.
We also adapt minimal-secure-streams-binance to build the -client variant
via SS proxy as well.
LWS_ONLY_SSPC is added so libwebsockets can be produced with just sspc
client support even for tiny targets.
A new embedded minimal example for rpi pico is also provided that
demonstrates using Serialized SS over a UART to an SS proxy, to implement
the SS Binance example on the pico, even though it has no networking itself.
This provides very memory-efficient CBOR stream parsing
and writing.
The parser converts pieces of CBOR into callbacks that define
the structure and collate string and blobs into buffer chunks
for extensible and easy access.
It is fragementation-safe and does not need all the CBOR in
the same place at one time, chunks of CBOR are parsed and
discarded as provided.
It does not allocate and just needs a few hundred bytes of
stack for even huge CBOR objects. Huge strings and blobs
are handled without needing memory to hold them atomically.
Includes ./minimal-examples/api-tests/api-test-lecp that
unit tests it against 82 official example CBORs and
26 additional test vectors from COSE (just checking the CBOR
parsing).
The writing apis allow printf style semantics with a variety
of CBOR-aware %-formats. The apis write into a context that
manages output buffer usage, if the output buffer fills,
then the apis return with an AGAIN code that lets you issue
and reset the output buffer and repeat the api all to issue
more output. The subsequent calls can occur much later or
from a different function context, so this is perfect for
WRITEABLE-mediated output from the network parts of lws.
