Description

The AQL parser has several forms for representing values, but not all of them are parseable by the ADM parser. In particular, length-specific integer types such as 15i8 cannot be loaded into a dataset.

This is particularly bad as the ADM serializer produces these style of values, meaning ADM is not round-trippable.
