Description
This PR introduces
Decoder::finish_unchecked
, which ignores any trailing bytes instead of failing, and uses that to allow for additional elements inside the packet-data. Also, it replaces some usage ofRLPDecode::decode
withRLPDecode::decode_unfinished
to allow for extra data after the message.As an extra, it refactors out the big
match
inside of bothMessage
encode and decode functions, since it's expected those will change often in the next PRs.Related to #17
