I started poking around with your suggestion while we are waiting. A
couple early observations:

1) It is actually easier to do than I previously thought and will probably
   help with getting more of the planned TAP output stuff working.

   That being said, this is still a pretty substantial undertaking and
   will likely take *at least* a week to implement and properly review.
   Assuming everything goes extremely well (no unexpected issues on my
   end, very responsive reviewers, etc).

2) It *will* eliminate the need for kunit_stream.

3) ...but, it *will not* eliminate the need for string_stream.

Based on my early observations, I do think it is worth doing, but I
don't think it is worth trying to make it in this patchset (unless I
have already missed the window, or it is going to be open for a while):
I do think it will make things much cleaner, but I don't think it will
achieve your desired goal of getting rid of an unstructured
{kunit|string}_stream style interface; it just adds a layer on top of it
that makes it harder to misuse.

I attached a patch of what I have so far at the end of this email so you
can see what I am talking about. And of course, if you agree with my
assessment, so we can start working on it as a future patch.

A couple things in regard to the patch I attached:

1) I wrote it pretty quickly so there are almost definitely mistakes.
   You should consider it RFC. I did verify it compiles though.

2) Also, I did use kunit_stream in writing it: all occurences should be
   pretty easy to replace with string_stream; nevertheless, the reason
   for this is just to make it easier to play with the current APIs. I
   wanted to have something working before I went through a big tedious
   refactoring. So sorry if it causes any confusion.

3) I also based the patch on all the KUnit patches I have queued up
   (includes things like mocking and such) since I want to see how this
   serialization thing will work with mocks and matchers and things like
   that.
