• hopefully final changes to the multibox definition: https://spec.scuttlebutt.nz/datatypes.html#multibox
• implemented the new multibox (de)serialization in rust: https://github.com/ssbrs/ssb-multiformats/commit/dabe8bda53f2c10cdfdf2263d5d47d4f4606916b
• update ssb-legacy-msg to use the new multibox: https://github.com/ssbrs/ssb-legacy-msg/commit/05331e5fe7e0cf150b0f1311ba84e6362486ed93

This should fully conclude the work on legacy messages. We have a full spec, rust implementations for deserialization, validation and serialization, and a more compact encoding (both a spec and a rust implementation).

Unless the multibox definition changes yet again, the next block of work will be the final definition of #hsdt (and a rust implementation, as usual).
