This would be *much* more useful if it were implemented using a newer
version of the `msgpack-core` library—they changed the name after
0.6.12—because 0.7 and above supports the `BINARY` format, which lets you send
arbitrary bytes. Without that, you won't be able to send tuples containing
arbitrary bytes with this serializer. This is also a problem with the JSON
serializer (because JSON strings can't contain non-Unicode characters), but it
would be great if we didn't have the problem here.

> 1. add _org.apache.storm.multilang.MessagePackSerializer_
> 2. change default "topology.multilang.serializer" to _MessagePackSerializer_
> According to http://msgpack.org/ : It's like JSON, but fast and small.

> MessagePack is an efficient binary serialization format. It lets you exchange
> data among multiple languages like JSON. But it's faster and smaller. Small
> integers are encoded into a single byte, and typical short strings require
> only one extra byte in addition to the strings themselves.
