Description:

ByteStream is a simple helper-class for serializing unsigned integers, strings and arrays of unsigned integers.
Instead of packing by hand, this class offer a stream-like interface.

The data is packed as follows:
integer -> packed according to the supplied type
string -> integer (length) + literal string of bytes
array -> interger (length) + integer (size of element) + elements
