Description

Let's create BinaryObject (BO) interface and a builder interface for it assuming

• BO is a self-described object. Similar to Ignite-2 one with a compact footer.
• BO is unmanaged. SchemaManager doesn't care about its schema at all.
• BO can be deserialized to user class with a specified deserializer.
• BO has a flat structure, cyclic links are not allowed. However, one can restore links on reserialization.
• BO must not have any dependencies on Ignite internals.
• Ignite should provide some base implementation for BO and builder.
