Streamable.ts - Canonical Java-Compatible Serialization Primitives

This module provides byte-exact serialization functions matching Minima's Java Streamable interface and its implementations.

JAVA REFERENCE CLASSES:

• MiniData.writeDataStream(): 4-byte int length + raw bytes
• MiniNumber.writeDataStream(): 1-byte scale + 1-byte len + BigInteger bytes
• MiniString.writeDataStream(): delegates to MiniData(UTF-8 bytes)
• MiniByte.writeDataStream(): single byte
• Crypto.writeHashToStream(): 4-byte int length + hash bytes
• MMREntryNumber.writeDataStream(): 1-byte len + BigInteger bytes

CRITICAL NOTES:

• MiniNumber uses 1-byte length, NOT 4-byte like MiniData
• BigInteger.toByteArray() uses two's complement (leading 0 if high bit set)
• Zero encodes as length=1, value=0x00

Created: 2026-01-20 Purpose: Single source of truth for all Minima type serialization
