Examples for unsigned integers and nils

[uKL]

Hey,

I have some issues implementing my expected behavior.

1. Unsigned integers

I'd like to pack a number as uint8. How can I do that? Using byte as a type doesn't seem to work.

2. Integer based keys

The example shows packing an object into MsgPack. I'd like to pack my own structure which looks like

{
   someUInt8Key: someUInt8Value
}

or

{
   someUInt8Key: [someUInt8Value, someOtherUInt8Value]
}

Can I achieve it with MoshiPack?

3. Packing nulls

Following the example, I modified it to have

data class MessagePackWebsitePlug(var compact: Byte? = null)

which packs to bytes [0x80] which means that it's a map with length 0. Is there any way to pack nulls?

Let me know your thoughts :)

On nulls, I think you'll need to pass in a Moshi instance configured to serialize nulls.
