Description: # Using the Module
        ## Converting to a Python `dict` object
        To convert a Python object to a Python `dict` (Dictionary) object, you use the `convert_to_data` function.
        
        ### Usage
        `convert_to_data(obj, _reached=None)`
        
        ### Arguments
        
        Argument   | Type       | Description | Default Value
        ---------- | ---------- | ----------- | -----------
        obj | Any | The object to convert to a Python `dict` object | required
        _reached | Set | A value passed to the function internally for recursive data structures | None
        
        ### Example
        
        ```python
        >>> class A:
        ...     def __init__(self, obj):
        ...         self.obj = obj
        ... 
        >>> obj1 = A('Hello World!')
        >>> data = convert_to_data(obj1)
        >>> data
        {'version': 1, 'min_version': 1, 'module': '__main__', 'type': 'A', 'attrs': {'obj': {'value': 'Hello World!', 'uuid': 192575949315149374534195982055635280394, 'mode': 'fallback'}}, 'uuid': 192575949235921212021180267458779800074}
        ```
        
        ## Converting back to a normal Python object
        To convert a Python mapping back into a normal Python object, you use the `convert_to_obj` function.
        
        ### Usage
        `convert_to_obj(data, allow_mode_repr=True, _reached=None)`
        
        ### Arguments
        
        Argument   | Type       | Description | Default Value
        ---------- | ---------- | ----------- | -----------
        data | Mapping | The mapping to convert back to a Python object (a `dict` is a mapping) | required
        allow_mode_repr | bool | Whether to enable MODE_REPR; you might want to have this enabled because the deserialization function of MODE_REPR uses `eval` which is insecure | True
        _reached | Set | A value passed to the function internally for recursive data structures | None
        
        ### Example
        
        ``` python
        >>> data = {'version': 1, 'min_version': 1, 'module': '__main__', 'type': 'A', 'attrs': {'obj': {'value': 'Hello World!', 'uuid': 192575949315149374534195982055635280394, 'mode': 'fallback'}}, 'uuid': 192575949235921212021180267458779800074}
        >>> obj2 = convert_to_obj(data)
        >>> obj2
        <__main__.A at 0x2473cbb88e0>
        ```
        
        ## Storing and Reading JSON
        To store and read JSON-serialized objects, you use the `dump`, `dumps`, `load`, and `loads` functions.
        
        ### `dump` and `dumps`
        Serializes `obj` and passes `*jargs` and `**jkwargs` to `json.dump` and `json.dumps` respectively.
        
        ### `load` and `loads`
        Deserializes the JSON data from `json.dump` or `json.dumps`. It passes `*jargs` and `**jkwargs` to `json.dump` and `json.dumps` respectively.
        
        ## Modifying how the serializer serializes specific types
        To modify how the serializer serializes specific types you use the `type_settings` descriptor.
        
        ### Usage
        `@type_settings(serialization_mode=MODE_YES, serialization_function=None, deserialization_function=None)`
        
        ### Arguments
        
        Argument   | Type       | Description | Default Value
        ---------- | ---------- | ----------- | -----------
        serialization_mode | any of the MODE_* constants | The method used to serialize (and possibly deserialize the type) | MODE_YES
        serialization_function | Union[None, Callable[[object, Set], JsonSupported]] | The function to serialize with (for MODE_FUNCTION); or `None` for others | None
        deserialization_function | Union[None, Callable[[JsonSupported, bool, Set], object]] | The function to serialize with (for MODE_FUNCTION); or `None` for others | None
        
        ### Modes
        #### MODE_YES
        serialize the type
        #### MODE_NO
        don't serialize the type, always deserializes as `None`
        #### MODE_FALLBACK
        fallback to the JSON module types, the types can be found at https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html#json.JSONDecoder
        #### MODE_REPR
        serializes with `repr(obj)`, deserializes with `eval(data)`
        #### MODE_FUNCTION
        uses `serialization_function` to serialize, and `deserialization_function` to deserialize
