WIP #picotron design document on PODs: https://www.lexaloffle.com/dl/docs/picotron_pod.html

// the web playground build will catch up later this week (will be v.8)

PODs are stringified Lua objects that are used to implement files, file/folder metadata, embedded images in source code, clipboard objects and inter-process messages. It's PODS all the way down, baby.

Some compression for #picotron userdata serialization: a byte-oriented RLE encoding that favors recently encountered values and works well with a second lz4 pass. It gives similar results to px9 / pngcrush -brute for typical data.

Here I'm dumping a test 320x100 image into clipboard and pasting back into source code as a ~5k base64 string.
