/**
 * Methods for serializing/deserializing entry field values. Most widgets don't
 * require this for their values, and those that do can typically serialize/
 * deserialize on every change from within the widget. The serialization
 * handlers here are for widgets whose values require heavy serialization that
 * would hurt performance if run for every change.

 * An example of this is the markdown widget, whose value is stored as a
 * markdown string. Instead of stringifying on every change of that field, a
 * deserialization method is registered from the widget's control module that
 * converts the stored markdown string to an AST, and that AST serves as the
 * widget model during editing.
 *
 * Serialization handlers should be registered for each widget that requires
 * them, and the registration method is exposed through the registry. Any
 * registered deserialization handlers run on entry load, and serialization
 * handlers run on persist.
