sealed trait Coproduct extends Product with Serializable
Encodes a coproduct type, such as a sealed family of case classes.
Each constructor from the family gets an encoding in terms of nested Inr and Inl.
Which constructor is encoded as Inl() and which as Inr(Inl()) is determined by lexical order of the subclasses. This example illustrates the encoding:
