Conversation
the macros reference `postcard-schema` and expect their callers to add the dependency. this has two downsides: * this dependency leaks to the caller * we have no guarantee as to which version the caller adds (and with which features), thus we don't know whether it'll actually compile by re-exporting it and referencing our re-export we can resolve this issue. the re-export is hidden from the docs as consumers are not supposed to use it directly. note that the ICD example has not been modified since it explicitly uses `#[derive(Schema)]` and thus directly depends on the crate. resolves jamesmunns#105
