The SchemaInfo for an array type has meta-type "array", and variant
member "element-type", which names the array's element type. Array
-types are implicitly defined.
+types are implicitly defined. For convenience, the array's name may
+resemble the element type; however, clients should examine member
+"element-type" instead of making assumptions based on parsing member
+"name".
Example: the SchemaInfo for ['str']

+ { "name": "[str]", "meta-type": "array",
"element-type": "str" }
The SchemaInfo for an enumeration type has meta-type "enum" and
