+// # Core Dumps
+//
+// A core dump is a serialized snapshot of the heap graph. We serialize the heap
+// as a series of protobuf messages with each message prefixed by its Varint32
+// byte size so we can delimit individual protobuf messages (protobuf parsers
+// cannot determine where a message ends on their own).
+//
+// The first protobuf message is an instance of the `Metadata` message. All
+// subsequent messages will be instances of the `Node` message. The first of
+// these `Node` messages is the root node of the serialized heap graph. Here is
+// a diagram of our core dump format:
+//
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | Varint32: The size of following `Metadata` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | message: The core dump `Metadata` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | Varint32: The size of the following `Node` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | message: The first `Node` message. This is the root node. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | Varint32: The size of the following `Node` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | message: A `Node` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | Varint32: The size of the following `Node` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | message: A `Node` message. |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+// | . |
+// | . |
+// | . |
+// +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
+//
+// Core dumps should always be written with a
+// `google::protobuf::io::GzipOutputStream` and read from a
+// `google::protobuf::io::GzipInputStream`.
+//
+// Note that all strings are de-duplicated. The first time the N^th unique
+// string is encountered, the full string is serialized. Subsequent times that
+// same string is encountered, it is referenced by N. This de-duplication
+// happens across string properties, not on a per-property basis. For example,
+// if the same K^th unique string is first used as an Edge::EdgeNameOrRef and
+// then as a StackFrame::Data::FunctionDisplayNameOrRef, the first will be the
+// actual string as the functionDisplayName oneof property, and the second will
+// be a reference to the first as the edgeNameRef oneof property whose value is
+// K.
+//
+// We would ordinarily abstract these de-duplicated strings with messages of
+// their own, but unfortunately, the protobuf compiler does not have a way to
+// inline a messsage within another message and the child message must be
+// referenced by pointer. This leads to extra mallocs that we wish to avoid.
