DER: error while encoding OCTET STRING more than 255 bytes long

[olegst90]

When I try to encode an OCTET STRING more than 255 bytes long, I get an exception in codecs/der.py:
490: encoded.append(len(data))
because the implementation seems not to support multibyte length fields. The same must happen with other array types.

Please, mention this limitation in the lib description.

It clearly states that all codecs are under development. It is close to impossible to have a list of all limitations as there are so many. I'll implement this tonight if it's easy, which it likely is.

Thank you in advance.

There is a fix in commit 535f0f0, which is released to PyPI in version 0.23.0.

I'm sure you will find other missing features, and likely a bug or two. Just post any issues here and I'll fix them.

Thank you so much, I've already tried and it worked.
