The current SerDes assumes an object type on deserialization because the schema preprocessor hardcodes that jsonType. While arrays are objects in JS, they are distinct in JsonType so arrays will fail the object type check.
This PR adds an option to specify an alternative like "array" jsonType and passes it through in the preprocessor code. Included are an added test and doc update.
Thanks for the work on this functionality @pilerou and @cdimascio.
