Bug: Encoding issue when loading hyperbee on browser about hyperbee

Thanks! Just noting that the uint8s and buffers above are equivalent, so the bug must be in the decoding step.

Perhaps that 'Node' valueEncoding on the Hypercore doesn't work well in the browser: https://github.com/hypercore-protocol/hyperbee/blob/4a2f2ab6e17d7c42031576ad3a73209bc667c4bf/index.js#L356 ? This is where I observe the browser and NodeJS runs begin to differ.

As per mafintosh's hint: the issue lies with the codecs library, which on V2.x does not yet use b4a. This is solved by bumping codecs to 3.0.0.

On top of bumping the codecs version, a newer version of b4a is also needed to solve this issue. See mafintosh/protocol-buffers-encodings#3

Solved with v2.0.0, which bumped the dependencies to the required versions. Thanks!
