Does the byte-stringified version include internal and/or trailing
alignment padding? How do you specify the other choices?
Whether or not trailing padding is included when byte-stringifying a
single compact struct, is the choice the same when byte-stringifying an
array of same? In other words, are you guaranteed that the
byte-stringify of an array of compact structs is merely the
concatenation of the byte-stringification of each struct?

Coerce to a buffer type rather than using ~.

By default it's as like C as possible. Other choices would have to act
something like pack templates and be hung on some appropriate declaration.
