+/** Object rewrite helper
+
+	This is meant to be used when you have a fully formed CbObject which you wish
+	to rewrite. Since the compact binary format is not meant for in-place updates
+	this involves scanning the object, copying the fields we want to keep and
+	writing new versions of the fields we wish to keep.
+
+	The Rewriter function accepts a reference to the CbObjectWriter which is being
+	used to build the new version of the object and a reference to a field which is
+	considered for copy or rewriting. If the function wants to rewrite a field then
+	it'll use the writer to write a new field and then return `true`, otherwise just
+	return `false` to have RewriteCbObject copy the field into the new object.
