Parity SCALE Codec

Implements compact types that minimize byte usage for numeric values, as highlighted in the README for environments with strict memory constraints like blockchain runtimes.

Uses clear traits such as Encode and Decode, enabling easy custom implementations and seamless integration with Rust's type system for flexible serialization.

Provides derive macros for structs and enums, reducing boilerplate code and ensuring consistent encoding logic, as shown in usage examples with attributes like #[codec(compact)].

Ensures identical encoding every time, critical for consensus-critical systems and cryptographic operations, aligning with the philosophy of minimal overhead and predictability.
