Description

Add support for the field-array type in field-tables.

Supporting field-array allows for better conversion from 0-10 and 1-0 to 0-9-1 since list types can now be converted in most cases where they are used in maps.

The Java field table support is still not in accordance with the 0-9-1 specification. The following types are not supported:

'B' short-short-uint
'U' short-int
'u' short-uint
'L' long-long-int
's' short-string

The following non-standard types are supported:

'x' binary
'c' ASCII STRING
'C' Wide string
'k' ASCII character
's' short **** incompatible
