/**
* An interface extending {@code List} that also provides access to the items of the list as
* UTF8-encoded ByteString or byte[] objects. This is used by the protocol buffer implementation to
* support lazily converting bytes parsed over the wire to String objects until needed and also
* increases the efficiency of serialization if the String was never requested as the ByteString or
* byte[] is already cached. The ByteString methods are used in immutable API only and byte[]
* methods used in mutable API only for they use different representations for string/bytes fields.
