dcsctp: Add bounded byte reader and writer

Packets, chunks, parameters and error causes - the SCTP entities
that are sent on the wire - are buffers with fields that are stored
in big endian and that generally consist of a fixed header size, and
a variable sized part, that can e.g. be encoded sub-fields or
serialized strings.

The BoundedByteReader and BoundedByteWriter utilities make it easy
to read those fields with as much aid from the compiler as possible,
by having compile-time assertions that fields are not accessed
outside the buffer's span.

There are some byte reading functionality already in modules/rtp_rtcp,
but that module would be a bit unfortunate to depend on, and doesn't
have the compile time bounds checking that is the biggest feature of
this abstraction of an rtc::ArrayView.

WebRTC is a free, open software project that provides browsers and mobile applications with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple APIs. The WebRTC components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.

Our mission: To enable rich, high-quality RTC applications to be developed for the browser, mobile platforms, and IoT devices, and allow them all to communicate via a common set of protocols.

The WebRTC initiative is a project supported by Google, Mozilla and Opera, amongst others.

Development
