/* This program parses an input string in a format a bit like JSON:
 * {'foobar': 1234, 'xyz': 'abc', 'tree': [[[1, 2], 3], [4, 5]]}
 * and encodes it as protobuf
 *
 * Note: The string parsing here is not in any way intended to be robust
 *       nor safe against buffer overflows. It is just for this test.
