-The property visitation methods in an `AutoBeanVisitor` type will receive
a `PropertyContext` object that allows the value of the property to be
mutated as well as providing type information about the field. If a
reference property being visited extends `Collection` the single
parameterization of that type will be provided. Calling the `canSet()`
method before calling `set()` promotes good code hygiene.

+These visitation methods behave similarly to `visitReferenceProperty()`
however the `PropertyContext` passed into these methods is specialized to
provide the parameterization of the `Collection` or `Map` object.

-* Maps are not yet implemented *
Maps are serialized in two forms based on wether or not the key type is a
value or reference type. Value maps are encoded as a typical JSON object.
For example, a `Map<Integer, Foo>` would be encoded as
