Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. Start by comparing the two proposed approaches—support for SmallVec<u8; N> or a SmallByteBuf wrapper—and inspect the crate's existing handling of &[u8] and Vec. Done requires a decided approach and implemented support for optimized byte handling.
