Functions for encoding and decoding length prefixed messages over streams

These functions implement the same protocol as used by other Stencila executors (e.g. Executa and Pyla) for sending messages using streams (e.g. standard input / output, TCP streams). Essentially it implements the functionality in the Node.js package length-prefixed-stream.
