Part of #149.
Adds
read_reference_arrayandread_reference_list, which hand back the elements' object addresses, andread_string_object, which reads a string at one of those addresses.read_stringis a dereference followed byread_string_object.string[]andList<string>become readable.Reference elements are pointers at the target's width, so a width claim through
read_arraycompiles at either width and silently answers garbage at the wrong one. These readers own the width. Null elements come back as null addresses at their positions, and only a null collection reference refuses.Custom-class elements work the same way. The object address plus
get_field_offsetreads fields directly.cargo test --all-featuresruns the suite. The new tests cover reference arrays and lists on both runtimes, lengths past the buffer, nulls kept in place, and string objects at their addresses.Depends on #152.
