[bknr-devel] BKNR.datastore: support for serializing/deserializing arrays with complex (list) element-types

[Vladimir Sedach]

Hi Hans,

Here is the updated patch with backwards compatibility (something
which I always forget!). Unfortunately it is a bit ugly and I don't
know how to make it better. I guess one lesson here is to add tags to
all binary data if you're designing a new serialization scheme.
