What you describe is pretty much how the encoder works today. Except that
we don't use the buf_t. Our structures also are encoded backwards to avoid
fixing up the length afterward.

What I'm trying to describe is something that doesn't generates c-code, but
tables that is parsed runtime instead, I think there is too much repetition
of code that can be described better.
