/**
 * Type serializer that preferably embeds type information as an "external"
 * type property; embedded in enclosing JSON object.
 * Note that this serializer should only be used when value is being output
 * at JSON Object context; otherwise it can not work reliably, and will have
 * to revert operation similar to {@link AsPropertyTypeSerializer}.
 *<p>
 * Note that implementation of serialization is bit cumbersome as we must
 * serialized external type id AFTER object; this because callback only
 * occurs after field name has been written.
