+ * Both Ser and Unser are delegated to a single static method SerializationOps, which is polymorphic
+ * in the serialized/deserialized type (allowing it to be const when serializing, and non-const when
+ * deserializing).
+ *
+ * Example use:
+ * struct FooFormatter {
+ * FORMATTER_METHODS(Class, obj) { READWRITE(obj.val1, VARINT(obj.val2)); }
+ * }
+ * would define a class FooFormatter that defines a serialization of Class objects consisting
+ * of serializing its val1 member using the default serialization, and its val2 member using
+ * VARINT serialization. That FooFormatter can then be used in statements like
+ * READWRITE(Using<FooFormatter>(obj.bla)).
