        //
        // Encodings of Int32, Byte[], String as defined by System.IO.BinaryReader/Writer.
        //
        // There are 3 sections, written in the following order:
        //
        // 1. Header
        // ---------
        // Encodes format and enough information to quickly decide if cache is still valid.
        //
        // Header:
        //   Int32 Signature: Spells PKGA ("package assets") when 4 little-endian bytes are interpreted as ASCII chars.
        //   Int32 Version: Increased whenever format changes to prevent issues when building incrementally with a different SDK.
        //   Byte[] SettingsHash: SHA-256 of settings that require the cache to be invalidated when changed.
        //   Int32 MetadataStringTableOffset: Byte offset in file to start of the metadata string table.
        //
        // 2. ItemGroup[] ItemGroups
        // --------------
        // There is one ItemGroup for each ITaskItem[] output (Analyzers, CompileTimeAssemblies, etc.)
        // Count and order of item groups is constant and therefore not encoded in to the file.
