Simplify JSON de/serialization in TypeScript - #680

We add generic ``parseArray``/``serializeArray`` helpers for JSON
list (de)serialization, replacing per-property inlined boilerplate
with shared calls.
Call sites pass a bare function reference wherever the existing
per-type function already has the right signature, and reach for a
lambda only where ``this`` must be captured. Concretely,
``serializeArray`` is called with ``AasCommon.base64Encode`` for
byte-array items and with ``AasStringification.must{Enum}ToString``
for enumeration items, while class items still need
``(item) => this.transform(item)``. Lists of identity primitives
(``bool``/``int``/``float``/``str``) skip ``serializeArray``
altogether and use ``Array.from`` for a defensive copy, since no
per-item transformation is needed.
TypeScript's XML (de)serialization is left untouched: XML
deserialization was already simplified in a separate, earlier pull
request (#671).
