    /** \brief List parser with size-field in bytes

        This list parser will parse a list which size is given by a preceding field containing the
        length of the list in bytes. This struct is just a template typedef:
        \code
        typedef senf::Parse_VectorN< Parser_UInt32, Parser_UInt16 >::parser Parse_MyVector;
        typedef senf::Parse_ListB< Parse_MyVector, Parse_UInt16 >::parser Parse_MyList;
        \endcode
        This first defines a Vector of 32 bit unsigned integers with 16 bit length counter. Then it
        defines a list of such vectors with a 16 bit bytes field.

        \warning There are some caveats when working with this kind of list
        \li You may <b>only change the size of a contained element from a container wrapper</b>.
        \li While you hold a container wrapper, <b>only access the packet through this wrapper</b>
            or a nested wrapper either for reading or writing.

        If lists are nested, you need to allocate a container wrapper for each level and may only
        access the packet through the lowest-level active container wrapper.

        \implementation These restrictions are necessary to ensure correct recalculation of the
            <tt>bytes</tt> field. For more info, see the comments in \ref ParseListB.ih
