feat(serialization): support arbitrary sizes for the internal seriali…

…zation buffer

* Added an option to set the min size of the serialization buffer

Added an option to set the min size of the temporary serialization buffer, plus added an optimization so a buffer is not copied after serialization when not needed.

* fixed code review
