Refactored binary string serialization to use a new universal wire format with FixStr (135–166) and String (167) markers and unsigned excess slots, replacing the previous tiered approach. Updated all read/write logic, marker handling, and type code definitions accordingly. FastWire UTF-16 marker (91) now has dedicated handling with legacy compatibility. Removed legacy StringSmall/Medium/Big/Ascii code paths except for backward-compatibility. Improved buffer management in ArrayBinaryOutput and documented new critical issues regarding buffer ownership and disposal. Added new utility methods for marker encoding/decoding and excess slot sizing. Updated documentation and comments to match the new format.
.NET 9 core framework providing serialization (Binary, JSON, Toon), entity abstractions, database access, services, and shared utilities. Used as the foundation layer for AyCode applications.
