//! Byte conversion traits for serialization and deserialization.

///
/// Used to determine the size of data structures when working with byte arrays.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```ignore
/// use osal_rs::traits::BytesHasLen;
/// 
/// let data: [u8; 4] = [1, 2, 3, 4];
/// assert_eq!(data.len(), 4);
/// assert!(!data.is_empty());

///
/// # Safety
///
/// When implementing this trait, ensure that the returned byte slice
/// is a valid representation of the type and lives at least as long
/// as the value itself.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```ignore
/// use osal_rs::traits::Serialize;
/// 
/// struct SensorData {
///     temperature: i16,
///     humidity: u8,
/// }
/// 
/// impl Serialize for SensorData {

///         // Convert struct to bytes
///         // Safety: ensure proper memory layout

///             core::slice::from_raw_parts(
///                 self as *const Self as *const u8,
///                 core::mem::size_of::<Self>()
///             )
///         }
///     }
/// }

/// Trait for deserializing types from byte slices.
///
/// Enables reconstruction of structured data from byte arrays received
/// from queues or communication channels.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Implementations should return an error if:
/// - The byte slice is too small or too large
/// - The data is invalid or corrupted
/// - The conversion fails for any other reason
///
/// # Examples
