 *
 * This class is a discriminated union wrapper that can represents a:
 * - signed integer [range: Value::minInt - Value::maxInt]
 * - unsigned integer (range: 0 - Value::maxUInt)
 * - double
 * - UTF-8 string
 * - boolean
 * - 'null'
 * - an ordered list of Value
 * - collection of name/value pairs (javascript object)
 *
 * The type of the held value is represented by a #ValueType and
 * can be obtained using type().
 *
 * Values of an #objectValue or #arrayValue can be accessed using operator[]()
 * methods.
 * Non-const methods will automatically create the a #nullValue element
 * if it does not exist.
 * The sequence of an #arrayValue will be automatically resized and initialized
 * with #nullValue. resize() can be used to enlarge or truncate an #arrayValue.
 *
 * The get() methods can be used to obtain default value in the case the
 * required element does not exist.
 *
 * It is possible to iterate over the list of member keys of an object using
 * the getMemberNames() method.
 *
 * \note #Value string-length fit in size_t, but keys must be < 2^30.
 * (The reason is an implementation detail.) A #CharReader will raise an
 * exception if a bound is exceeded to avoid security holes in your app,
 * but the Value API does *not* check bounds. That is the responsibility
 * of the caller.
