ArrayLikeCodecSize

type ArrayLikeCodecSize<TPrefix> = TPrefix | number | "remainder";

Defines the possible size strategies for array-like codecs (array, map, and set).

The size of the collection can be determined using one of the following approaches:

• A NumberCodec, NumberDecoder, or NumberEncoder to store a size prefix.
• A fixed number of items, enforcing an exact length.
• The string "remainder", which infers the number of items by consuming the rest of the available bytes. This option is only available when encoding fixed-size items.
