 * const decoded = decode(buffer);
 * console.log(decoded); // { "1": 2, "3": 4 }

 *
 * CBOR values can be wrapped in a numeric tag. To handle and possibly
 * transform tagged values, pass a tagger function:
 *
 * ```js
 * const buffer = new Uint8Array([
 *   0xa1, 0x63, 0x75, 0x72, 0x6c, 0xd8, 0x20, 0x70,

 *   0x69, 0x74, 0x65, 0x2e, 0x63, 0x6f, 0x6d, 0x2f
 * ]);
 * const decoded = decode(buffer, (tag, value) => {
 *     if (tag === 32) return new URL(value);
 *     return value;
 * });
 * console.log(decoded); // { url: URL { href: "http://site.com/" } }
 * ```
 *
 * Decoded basic types generally match the equivalent JavaScript types. Byte
 * strings are decoded to Uint8Array.
 *
 * Tagged values are left as-is, with the following exceptions:
 * - Bignum values (byte strings with tag 2 or 3) are decoded to BigInt
 * - Little-endian versions of typed arrays as defined in RFC 8746 are decoded
 *   to JavaScript typed arrays
 *
 * @param data A valid CBOR buffer.
 * @param tagger Optional callback for transformation of tagged values.
 * @param options Options for decoding behavior.
