Define efficient serialization proxies

Define efficient serialization proxies

Superclasses have footprint in serialization protocol, as their
descriptors get written out.

Capture Externalizable logic into SerialForm, which implements
Externalizable -- the protocol to be easily implemented without a
superclass. This entails updating the API footprint of AbstractProxy
to reuse its methods.

Then introduce shorthand proxy classes which behave exactly like their
AbstractProxy counterparts, but without the AbstractProxy baggage.

This enables reading implied serialization format, if we encounter it,
providing forward compatibility with the format.
