Add the Binary data type and corresponding helper functions to Asterix.
The binary data type is implemented as a bytearray. Its storage format
follows the String type which has 2 bytes for length and then store the
bytes contents.
Binary data will take hex("") or base64("") as the constructor method to
passing a hex string or base64 string into Asterix. For output we use
hex("") format.
The parse-[hex|base64](string) function will parse the corresponding hex
or base64 string to binary type. The print-[hex|base64](binary)
functions will print the binary to hex or base64 STRING format.
The sub-binary(binary, offset, [length]) function works the same as
substring(string, offset, [length])
The find-binary(srcbinary, targetbinary, [start-offset]) will find the
position of the targetbinary in the srcbinary.
