This adds the last structural path for 2.1, full zip encoding of variable length data. Scheduling this turned out to be a little trickier than I had planned. There is no easy way to know where to slice the fully-zipped buffer when doing decoding. Currently we settle this problem by unzipping in the indirect scheduling task. There are some alternative possibilities that I have documented but for now I think this will be good enough and we can iterate on this going forwards.
