Types and extension methods to deal with binary data.

## Features

- read primitives in any endianness using `Read` and `TryRead` extension methods for `BinaryReader` and `byte[]`

- a logged stream that logs read and written regions in a wrapped stream

  - e.g. reverse-engineering a file format and find what's currently been unexplored in the file by your logic

## CHANGELOG

1.1.2 (11/19/2020)

- added BinaryReader.ReadToEnd method

- fixed LogStream.GetRegionsReadIntersect that was returning empty regions for fully read streams

- added tests project

- enforced C# 8.0 version so project can still be used in Unity

- using internal annotations to prevent conflicts, e.g. when using UnityEngine.CoreModule in non-Unity projects

- don't include XML documentation in repository

1.1.1 (10/2/2020)

- publishing release configuration instead

1.1.0 (10/2/2020)

- **breaking changes**

  - not overloading `System.IO` namespace anymore

  - not everything has been back ported yet

  - switching to .NET Standard 2.1

- better NuGet package with sources and symbols

- now using T4 templates for code generation

- version bump to 1.1.0

- new icon

1.0.* (11/18/2018)

- seamless reading of integral types in big-endian or little-endian format, environment endianness being irrelevant

- functions are exposed as extension methods for `BinaryReader` and all integral types

- endian-aware integral types, just declare structs and read them in one go with `ReadStruct`

- a `LoggedBinaryReader` that logs read and unread regions, very useful when deciphering some complex file format
