This is a squash of a few commits. Below is a small summary of commits.
Results from it: before the build size of socket.io-client was ~250K.
Now it is ~215K.
Tests I was doing here
(https://github.com/kevin-roark/socketio-binaryexample/tree/speed-testing)
take about 1/4 - 1/5 as long with this commit compared to msgpack.
The first was the initial rewrite of the encoding, which removes msgpack
and instead uses a sequence of engine.write's for a binary event. The
first write is the packet metadata with placeholders in the json for
any binary data. Then the following events are the raw binary data that
get filled by the placeholders.
The second commit was bug fixes that made the tests pass.
The third commit was removing unnecssary packages from package.json.
Fourth commit was adding nice comments, and 5th commit was merging
upstream.
The remaining commits involved merging with actual socket.io-parser,
rather than the protocol repository. Oops.
