Description
the layout of PE structs is pretty well documented, so it should be possible to turn PEs to and from bytes.
If this is not completely possible, it should at least be mostly possible - however many of the headers don't implement the correct traits.

Research direction
Start by locating the PE struct definitions and existing FromCtx and IntoCtx implementations in the goblin crate. Determine which PE headers lack the traits and how byte conversion is tested. Done means the relevant PE structs support both conversions as far as the documented layout allows, with tests covering the supported headers.
