[I] Add example nested Variant values that are not JSON encodeable [parquet-testing]

alamb opened a new issue, #77:

   -  https://github.com/apache/parquet-testing/pull/76 adds example variant binary values
   
   Variant is a binary format similar to JSON but allows more types in its value fields. 
   
   However, at the time of writing, I could not figure out how to create nested structures other than via JSON, which limits the type of the fields. I tried Apache spark, but to no avail. 
   
   Thus, we have values such as the following (valid JSON):
   
   ```json
   { 
     "field1" : 123.455
   }
   ```
   
   However, there are no example values for data like this (where the field's value is a signed 8 bit integer):
   
   ```json
   { 
     "field1" : 123u8,
   }
   ```
   
   This ticket tracks adding example values for Variants for nested data that is not JSON encodeable (e.g. with timestamp  and other types of fields)
