The `ContainerValue` template can obtain the type of the contained value
via the given `Container` type, simply using `Container::value_type`.
Use this as the default way to determine the value type which simplifies
using the template. If necessary the value type can be passed explicitly
still.
Adds an abstraction layer to switch between serialization formats.
Currently only supports JSON. The abstraction layer supports
`String`, `Int`, `Array`, `Null`, `Boolean`, `Float` and `Object`. This
feature is only CPP complaint.
To write from a stream, the structure can be built by creating a value
(any subclass of `blender::io::serialize::Value` can do, and pass it to
the `serialize` method of a `blender::io::serialize::Formatter`. The
formatter is abstract and there is one implementation for JSON
(`JsonFormatter`).
To read from a stream use the `deserialize` method of the formatter.
{D12693} uses this abstraction layer to read/write asset indexes.
