/**
 * Encoder is a core serialization primitive that encapsulates the knowledge of the underlying
 * format and its storage, exposing only structural methods to the serializer, making it completely
 * format-agnostic. Serialization process transforms a single value into the sequence of its
 * primitive elements, also called its serial form, while encoding transforms these primitive elements into an actual
 * format representation: JSON string, ProtoBuf ByteArray, in-memory map representation etc.
 *
 * Encoder provides high-level API that operates with basic primitive types, collections
 * and nested structures. Internally, encoder represents output storage and operates with its state
 * and lower level format-specific details.
 *
 * To be more specific, serialization transforms a value into a sequence of "here is an int, here is
 * a double, here a list of strings and here is another object that is a nested int", while encoding
 * transforms this sequence into a format-specific commands such as "insert opening curly bracket
 * for a nested object start, insert a name of the value, and the value separated with colon for an int etc."
 *
 * The symmetric interface for the deserialization process is [Decoder].
 *
 * ### Serialization. Primitives
 *
 * If a class is represented as a single [primitive][PrimitiveKind] value in its serialized form,
 * then one of the `encode*` methods (e.g. [encodeInt]) can be used directly.
 *
 * ### Serialization. Structured types.
 *
 * If a class is represented as a structure or has multiple values in its serialized form,
 * `encode*` methods are not that helpful, because they do not allow working with collection types or establish structure boundaries.
 * All these capabilities are delegated to the [CompositeEncoder] interface with a more specific API surface.
 * To denote a structure start, [beginStructure] should be used.
 * ```
 * // Denote the structure start,
 * val composite = encoder.beginStructure(descriptor)
 * // Encoding all elements within the structure using 'composite'
 * ...
 * // Denote the structure end
 * composite.endStructure(descriptor)
 * ```
 *
 * E.g. if the encoder belongs to JSON format, then [beginStructure] will write an opening bracket
 * (`{` or `[`, depending on the descriptor kind), returning the [CompositeEncoder] that is aware of colon separator,
 * that should be appended between each key-value pair, whilst [CompositeEncoder.endStructure] will write a closing bracket.
 *
 * ### Exception guarantees.
 * For the regular exceptions, such as invalid input, conflicting serial names,
 * [SerializationException] can be thrown by any encoder methods.
 * It is recommended to declare a format-specific subclass of [SerializationException] and throw it.
 *
 * ### Format encapsulation
 *
 * For example, for the following serializer:
 * ```
 * class StringHolder(val stringValue: String)
 *
 * object StringPairDeserializer : SerializationStrategy<StringHolder> {
 *    override val descriptor = ...
 *
 *    override fun serializer(encoder: Encoder, value: StringHolder) {
 *        // Denotes start of the structure, StringHolder is not a "plain" data type
 *        val composite = encoder.beginStructure(descriptor)
 *        // Encode the nested string value
 *        composite.encodeStringElement(descriptor, index = 0)
 *        // Denotes end of the structure
 *        composite.endStructure(descriptor)
 *    }
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * This serializer does not know anything about the underlying storage and will work with any properly-implemented encoder.
 * JSON, for example, writes an opening bracket `{` during the `beginStructure` call, writes 'stringValue` key along
 * with its value in `encodeStringElement` and writes the closing bracket `}` during the `endStructure`.
 * XML would do roughly the same, but with different separators and structures, while ProtoBuf
 * machinery could be completely different.
 * In any case, all these parsing details are encapsulated by an encoder.
 *
 * ### Exception safety
 *
 * In general, catching [SerializationException] from any of `encode*` methods is not allowed and produces unspecified behaviour.
 * After thrown exception, current encoder is left in an arbitrary state, no longer suitable for further encoding.
 *
 * ### Encoder implementation.
 *
 * While being strictly typed, an underlying format can transform actual types in the way it wants.
 * For example, a format can support only string types and encode/decode all primitives in a string form:
 * ```
 * StringFormatEncoder : Encoder {
 *
 *     ...
 *     override fun encodeDouble(value: Double) = encodeString(value.toString())
 *     override fun encodeInt(value: Int) = encodeString(value.toString())
 *     ...
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * ### Not stable for inheritance
 *
 * `Encoder` interface is not stable for inheritance in 3rd party libraries, as new methods
 * might be added to this interface or contracts of the existing methods can be changed.
