Marek Kotewicz 044d070667 rlp deserialization refactor, 30% faster (#4901)
* fixed naming of rlp modules

* RlpStream cleanup

* appending short rlp lists (0...55 bytes) is 25% faster

* RlpStream does not use bytes module, nor trait Stream

* removed unused code from rlp module

* compiling ethcore-util with new rlp serialization

* compiling parity with new rlp serialization

* fixed compiling ethcore-light with new rlp serialization

* fixed compiling ethsync with new rlp serialization

* moved rlp benches and rlp tests

* rlp deserialization refactor, 30% faster

* removed redundant comment, print

* fixed compiling parity with new rlp deserialization

* removed redundant double-space

* fixed failing test

* updated rlp docs, removed unused traits

* fixed rlp benchmarks

* replace usage of WriteBytesExt with ByteOrder

* removed unused, commented out code

* fixed merge conflict

//! Recursive Length Prefix serialization crate.
//!
//! Allows encoding, decoding, and view onto rlp-slice
//!
//!# What should you use when?
//!
//!### Use `encode` function when:
//! * You want to encode something inline.
//! * You do not work on big set of data.
//! * You want to encode whole data structure at once.
//!
//!### Use `decode` function when:
//! * You want to decode something inline.
//! * You do not work on big set of data.
//! * You want to decode whole rlp at once.
//!
//!### Use `RlpStream` when:
//! * You want to encode something in portions.
//! * You encode a big set of data.
//!
//!### Use `Rlp` when:
//! * You are working on trusted data (not corrupted).
//! * You want to get view onto rlp-slice.
//! * You don't want to decode whole rlp at once.
//!
//!### Use `UntrustedRlp` when:
//! * You are working on untrusted data (~corrupted).
//! * You need to handle data corruption errors.
//! * You are working on input data.
//! * You want to get view onto rlp-slice.
//! * You don't want to decode whole rlp at once.
