    Description

      Introduce a small static class to contain a few BSON related useful helper methods:

      public static class Bson
      {
          public T Deserialize<T>(BsonDocument document);
          public T Deserialize<T>(BsonDocument document, IBsonSerializer<T> serializer);
          public T Deserialize<T>(byte[] bson);
          public T Deserialize<T>(byte[] bson, IBsonSerializer<T> serializer);
          public byte[] ToBson<T>(T value);
          public byte[] ToBson<T>(T value, IBsonSerializer<T> serializer);
          public byte[] ToBsonDocument<T>(T value);
          public byte[] ToBsonDocument<T>(T value, IBsonSerializer<T> serializer);
          // and probably more, but this gives the idea
      }

      This would also be a step along the way to removing the ToBson and ToBsonDocument extension methods defined on object, which ended up polluting the global namespace.
