Previously, T: AsBytes indicated that &T -> &[u8] was a valid
transformation. As of #682, T: AsBytes only indicates that T -> [u8]
is a valid transformation. This slightly changes the meaning of
AsBytes and makes IntoBytes a more appropriate name since it only
permits value rather than reference transmutations. This also brings the
pair of FromBytes and IntoBytes in line with the standard library
From and Into traits from a naming perspective.

Closes #695
