  TORawByteString
    - a replacement of RawByteString for NextGen (iOS/Android) for use
      as a plain byte buffer (no explicit string data inside)
    - please note that all indices used in TORawByteString are 0-based if not stated differently.
      this is necessary to keep things simple

  TORawByteChar
    - a replacement for AnsiChar

  TORawSingleByteEncoding
    - Encoding that converts the byte representation of chars (only within $FF) directly to/from byte
      (no character codepage involved).

}

{.$DEFINE ORAW_IMPLICIT}//define to allow implicit conversions (a little less secure)
