0.9: Tweak to the type map/custom serialization.deserialization code in ItemFile?*Store

This is a minor update to allow for simple type mapping as well as general case type mapping. So for simple objects that can be created by passing _value to the constructor and serialized via .toString(), typemaps are just:

var typeMap = { type: constructor, ... };

For complex mapping that require special processing on the input or output formats, then you can use a general case mapping of:

var typeMap = {

type: {

type: constructor, deserialize: function(value), seralize: function(object),

}, ...

}
