Data format used to communicate with openssh mux server.

Format details: - All integers are encoded in big endian; - Boolean are encoded as u32 according to here; - char are encoded as u32; - Strings and bytes are encoded as length(u32) + content, same as [sshbuf_put_string]; - Option::None are omitted while Option::Some(v) has the same encoding as v since openssh mux protocol allows optional parameter at the end of the message; - struct/tuple are encoded as-is, unit struct/tuple are omitted; - sequence are encoded as if it is a tuple according to here, thus it cannot be deserialized; - Variant is encoded as index(u32) + content encoded as-is (it is expected to manually implement Serialize and Deserialize to ensure the variant_index is the one you expected); - Serializing/Deserializing map is unsupported;
