util: make buffer readonly...
util: make buffer readonly There is no use of writable buffers anywhere in the code, and this helps us make sure we don't get into unsound territory when sharing memory with Rust. This `toreadonly` method was not available in Python 3.6, but we dropped the support for it earlier that week, so no need for any compatibility code.

:alt: Code Coverage
This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)
(`RFC 7049`_) serialization format.
There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C
extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation
also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension
tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing
itself).
