Chun-Min Chang 2e5d3014c7 Bug 1681811 - Update mp4parse-rust to 3d9efdc r=jbauman
Import the improvements made in mp4parse-rust repo. The changes would
save some redundant copy when calling avif related APIs and provide the
ability to get the alpha data of the parsed avif image.

num-bigint

crate documentation minimum rustc 1.15 Travis status

Big integer types for Rust, BigInt and BigUint.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
num-bigint = "0.2"

and this to your crate root:

extern crate num_bigint;

Features

The std crate feature is mandatory and enabled by default. If you depend on num-bigint with default-features = false, you must manually enable the std feature yourself. In the future, we hope to support #![no_std] with the alloc crate when std is not enabled.

Implementations for i128 and u128 are only available with Rust 1.26 and later. The build script automatically detects this, but you can make it mandatory by enabling the i128 crate feature.

Releases

Release notes are available in RELEASES.md.

Compatibility

The num-bigint crate is tested for rustc 1.15 and greater.

Alternatives

While num-bigint strives for good performance in pure Rust code, other crates may offer better performance with different trade-offs. The following table offers a brief comparison to a few alternatives.
