/// SerializeTrait - SerializeTrait bridges between the Serializer/Deserializer
///  and the functions that serialize objects of specific types.  The default
///  behavior is to call static methods of the class for the object being
///  serialized, but this behavior can be changed by specializing this
///  template.  Classes only need to implement the methods corresponding
///  to the serialization scheme they want to support.  For example, "Read"
///  and "ReadVal" correspond to different deserialization schemes which make
///  sense for different types; a class need only implement one of them.
///  Serialization and deserialization of pointers are specially handled
///  by the Serializer and Deserializer using the EmitOwnedPtr, etc. methods.
///  To serialize the actual object referred to by a pointer, the class
///  of the object either must implement the methods called by the default
///  behavior of SerializeTrait, or specialize SerializeTrait.  This latter
///  is useful when one cannot add methods to an existing class (for example).
