A human-readable serialization of ssz.
The sszt engine is written as a Serde deserializer for the recursive SsztValue enum and should
be easily modified to support most formats supported by Serde.
Two major formats are currently supported: * JSON * YAML
The biggest deviations from the JSON / YAML specifications are appending the integer type at the end of the number using a string and declaring the type array (list / vector) in the first element.
| Type | Representation|
| -- |--|
| null | null
| bool | true \| false
| number | "N:{u8\|u16\|u32\|u64\|u128\|u256}"
| string | "string"
| vector (fixed length) | ["vector", "0:u8", "1:u8"]
| list (variable length) | ["list", "0:u8", "1:u8"]
| object | { "key1": "123:u32", "key2": ["vector", "456:u32"] }
