[Lang] Serialization [was: Increasing its role]

[Stephen Colebourne <sc...@btopenworld.com>]

I've committed the serialization changes I suggested as new classes. I
haven't removed the methods from Objects at the moment, because the
functionality is slightly different.

The code in Objects allowed you to serialize to and from a byte[]. If an
error occurred it was silently absorbed. In the code I have committed,
errors are thrown as SerializationException (runtime exception, as this
error should be picked up during testing). Full test cases added as well.

If I hear nothing back, I will remove the old methods from Objects.
