This PR proposes to add an internal layout transformer that could be used to transform MemoryLayout entities. For example, it would be possible to convert a struct layout to use network order ((big-endian) instead of native byte order (often little-endian). Another application is to remove naming recursively for composite layouts when caching shapes etc.
