    Overview

    Package endian implements a simple translation between bytes and numbers with specific endian encodings.

    Example:
    buf: [100]u8
    put_u16(buf[:], .Little, 16) or_return
    
    // You may ask yourself, why isn't `byte_order` platform Endianness by default, so we can write:
    put_u16(buf[:], 16) or_return
    
    // The answer is that very few file formats are written in native/platform endianness. Most of them specify the endianness of
    // each of their fields, or use a header field which specifies it for the entire file.
    
    // e.g. a file which specifies it at the top for all fields could do this:
    file_order := .Little if buf[0] == 0 else .Big
    field := get_u16(buf[1:], file_order) or_return
    
    // If on the other hand a field is *always* Big-Endian, you're wise to explicitly state it for the benefit of the reader,
    // be that your future self or someone else.
    
    field := get_u16(buf[:], .Big) or_return
