cva_t - Converts a type trie to an equivalent array
trie cva_t -> /name array
/pop load cva_t -> /pop [/anytype [-pop-]]
cva_t maps the tree structure of the trie-object to an array.
The first return value is the name of the trie object.
The second value is an array, representing the trie.
The layout of a trie node is represented as:
[/type [next] [alt]] for non-leaf nodes and
[object] for leaf nodes.
/type is a literal, representing the expected type.
[next] is an array, representig the next parameter levels.
[alt] is an array, representig parameter alternatives
at the current level.
This definitions recursively define the type-trie.
This operation is rather low level and does not raise
errors
cva_t is the inverse function to cvt_a.
If cva_t is applied to the result of cvt_a, it yields
the original argument:
aTrie cva_t cvt_a -> aTrie
