Description

Decode should do a deep copy that gets rid of all the protobufjs magic. Currently, some remains in byte buffers, etc.

Contributor guide

No contributing guide indexed for this repository

Research direction

Read the Decode implementation and inspect how protobufjs values, especially byte buffers, are currently copied. Determine which protobufjs-specific behavior remains after decoding, then verify that decoded results are independent plain data without that behavior. The issue names no files or tests, so repository-wide search for Decode is the starting point.
