/**
* Enumeration of all possible types accessed by the Inspector API.
* Note that:
* - the EMPTY type is used as a placeholder where data is missing.
* - all integers are put into LONGs; the encoding takes care of
* packing small integers compactly so this is also efficient.
* - likeweise DOUBLE is the only floating-point type, but "simple"
* numbers (like 0.0 or 1.0) are packed compactly anyway.
* - DATA can be used anything for wrapping anything else serialized
* as an array of bytes.
* - maps should be represented as an ARRAY of OBJECTs where each
* object has the fields "key" and "value".
