 *
 *   Common Data Representation (CDR) marshaling streams.
 *
 *   This implementation assumes that the native numeric
 *   representation is two's complement for integers, IEEE
 *   single/double for floats.  Also that characters are in ISO
 *   Latin/1.
 *
 *   Note that CDR itself makes no such assumptions, but this
 *   implementation makes such assumptions for reasons of
 *   efficiency.  Careful enhancements could preserve that
 *   efficiency where the assumptions are true, yet still allow the
 *   code to work when they aren't true.
 *
 *   The implementation expects that buffers are aligned according
 *   to the strongest CDR alignment restriction.
 *
 *   NOTE: this does everything "CDR 1.1" does ... that is, it
 *   supports the five extended OMG-IDL data types in UNO Appendix
 *   A, which provide richer arithmetic types (64 bit integers,
 *   "quad precision" FP) and UNICODE-based characters and strings.
 *   Those types are not standard parts of OMG-IDL at this time.
 *
 *   THREADING NOTE: CDR data structures must be protected against
 *   concurrent access by their owning thread.

 * it is easier to describe an array starting from x+offset.
 * + Operations return an error status, because exceptions are
 * not widely available in C++ (yet).
