feat: add wincode serialization as alternative to bincode - #328
Merged
Conversation
Add a `wincode` feature to the interface crate that implements `ConfigKeys` (de)serialization, `get_config_data` and the instruction builders on top of wincode instead of bincode. The encoding is byte-identical to bincode; `wincode` takes precedence when both features are enabled. Bump solana-instruction, solana-pubkey, solana-short-vec and solana-system-interface to versions exposing their `wincode` features, and drop the unused solana-account dependency from the interface crate.

Problem: - cargo spellcheck rejects "backend", missing from hunspell dictionary Summary of Changes: - name bincode and wincode directly instead of calling them backends
