Description

https://github.com/openai/tiktoken/blob/095924e02c85617df6889698d94515f91666c7ea/src/lib.rs#L524
Hello, I'm reading the lib.rs code and found the encode_with_unstable api, tt donesn't seem to be used in the documentation?
But it occupied so much in the lib.rs, and the comments in code don't explain Why and What.
So maybe some extra explanation?

Done means a newcomer can understand why the API exists and what it does.
