The rencode module is similar to bencode from the BitTorrent project.
For complex, heterogeneous data structures with many small elements,
r-encodings take up significantly less space than b-encodings.

This version of rencode is a complete rewrite in Cython to attempt to
increase the performance over the pure Python module written by Petru
Paler, Connelly Barnes et al.
