ASN1. Allow to register value type for Any to avoid blindly decoding when possible

["Zheng, Kai" <ka...@intel.com>]

Hi Jiajia and all,

Please check out the following commit. This will avoid blinding decoding of Any type and improve performance since it allows to specify the user defined value type for the Any container.
Additionally, for the CMS generic ContentInfo container that uses Any for the content part, a further wrapper is encouraged and the value type can be specified in the wrapper elegantly.

A sample:

/**
* A ContentInfo that wraps SignedData.
*/
public class SignedContentInfo extends ContentInfo {

    public SignedContentInfo() {
        super();
        setAnyFieldValueType(CONTENT, SignedData.class);
    }

    public SignedData getSignedData() {
        return getFieldAsAny(CONTENT, SignedData.class);
    }

    public void setSignedData(SignedData signedData) {
        setFieldAsAny(CONTENT, signedData);
    }
}
