Comment (by itamarst):

 `cbor2` can parse from file, at least.

 In theory one could do terrible things with `mmap()` such that the Rust
 CDDL (which requiers a byte slice) can validate a file.

 But first... does the very flexible Foolscap mutable writing API actually
 use all that flexibility? If not, we might be able to simplify the HTTP
 protocol a lot.
