`TryFromBytes` can be implemented for types which are not `FromZeroes` or `FromBytes`; it supports performing a runtime check to determine whether a given byte sequence contains a valid instance of `Self`. This is the first step of #5, and only adds support for some internals. Future commits will add a richer public API, implementations of `TryFromBytes` for built-in types, support for a custom derive, and support for implementing `TryFromBytes` on unsized types. Makes progress on #5
