While we had been trying to fit Map's semantics into JSON's object,
the solution had been in front of us all along: It's impossible!
`new Map()` takes a list of pairs and not an object, because objects are inherently
less powerful than Maps.
By also using list of pairs to describe `Map`, we finally can serialize
`Map<RegExp, V>` or `Map<{}, V>`.
See introduced tests in `index.test.ts` for reference! :D

Depends on #37, #36
This PR implements Idea 1 described in #11.
Instead of saving paths like so ...
{ "a.deep.nested.path.containing.multiple.keys": "map", "a.deep.nested.path.containing.multiple.keys.a": "number", "a.deep.nested.path.containing.multiple.keys.b": "number", }... we save it like so:
{ "a.deep.nested.path.containing.multiple.keys": [ "map", { "a": ["number"], "b": ["number"] } ] }
