// WriteDelimited encodes and dumps a message to the provided writer prefixed

// encoded messages of the same type together in a file.  It returns the total
// number of bytes written and any applicable error.  This is roughly
// equivalent to the companion Java API's MessageLite#writeDelimitedTo.
