Converts an instance to/from the representation needed by libmdbx. This type is
used for both keys and values.

Only the Text instance is provided, since it is commonly used as the key when
storing/retrieving a value.

For your own types, in general, you will want to use a serialization library
such as store, cereal, etc, and apply the newtype deriving via trick. 

For store (this can be found in the example application), the instance can be
defined as:

@
newtype MdbxItemStore a = MdbxItemStore {
  unwrapStore :: a
}

instance Store a => MdbxItem (MdbxItemStore a) where
  fromMdbxVal item = MdbxItemStore <$> fromMdbxStore item
  toMdbxVal item = withMdbxStore (unwrapStore item)

fromMdbxStore :: Store v => MdbxVal -> IO v
fromMdbxStore (MdbxVal size ptr) = do
  bs <- unsafePackCStringLen (castPtr ptr, fromIntegral size)
  decodeIO bs

withMdbxStore :: Store v => v -> (MdbxVal -> IO a) -> IO a
withMdbxStore val fn =
  unsafeUseAsCStringLen bsV $ \(ptrV, sizeV) -> do
    let mval = MdbxVal (fromIntegral sizeV) (castPtr ptrV)
    fn mval
  where
    bsV = encode val
@

This code can be adaptad to other serialization libraries. It is not provided as
part of libmdbx-hs itself to avoid forcing dependencies.

Then, to derive the instance for your owwn type:

@
data User = User {
  _username :: Text,
  _password :: Text
} deriving (Eq, Show, Generic, Store)

deriving via (MdbxItemStore User) instance MdbxItem User
@

Note: if you plan on using a custom type as the key, be careful if it contains
Text or Bytestring instances, since these types have a length field which is,
in general, before the data. This can issues when using cursors, since those
depend on key ordering and the length field will make shorter instances lower
than longer ones, even if the content indicates the opposite. In general, it is
simpler to use Text as the key.

  Converts a block of memory provided by libmdbx to a user data type. There are
  no guarantees provided by the library that the block of memory matches the
  expected type, and a crash can happen if not careful.

  Converts a user data type to a block of memory.
