Ceras: Bug: Usage with generic Dictionary and larger boolean Arrays

Remember: The more faster I can reproduce your problem, the faster I can fix it 😛

Bug description We are trying to use Ceras for serialization/deserialization of custom classes that have a generic Dictionary of kind Dictionary<string, object> to be able to exchange a bunch of arrays of different type over UDP with Unity from vvvv.

I coded a quick example that shows the basic idea of what we are trying to do: NSYNK/Ceras Issue.

Looks like when the dict has a too large array of booleans it throws the following exception:

System.Exception
  HResult=0x80131500
  Message=Cannot find type System.Single[] after searching in all user provided assemblies and all loaded assemblies. Is the type in some plugin-module that was not yet loaded? Or did the assembly that contains the type change (ie the type got removed)?
  Source=Ceras

Propablly we are missusing Ceras or maybe we are missing a proper configuration of it? 🤔

How to reproduce the bug See simple example: NSYNK/Ceras Issue

Platform

• Ceras Version: 4.1.4 on net472
• We are using Unity version 2019.1.9f1, but not IL2CPP
