Add default callback to Encoder/encode #20
Description
To support serializing arbitrary objects, it'd be useful to add a default callback (mirroring the option in json.dumps, orjson.dumps, ...). If provided, this would be called on unsupported objects, and would be expected to return a supported object.
def default(obj: Any) -> Any: # where the out Any is a supported type
...This would allow for converting unsupported types into supported types lazily, as well as fancier things like serializing unsupported large objects out-of-band.
