Interface for deserializing type information from JSON content, to type-safely deserialize data into correct polymorphic instance (when type inclusion has been enabled for type handled).

Separate deserialization methods are needed because serialized form for inclusion mechanism As.PROPERTY is slighty different if value is not expressed as JSON Object: and as such both type deserializer and serializer need to JSON Object form (array, object or other (== scalar)) being used.
