 * Several rules constrain the valid types.  See ovsdb_type_is_valid() (in
 * ovsdb-types.c) for details.
 *
 * If 'value_type' is OVSDB_TYPE_VOID, 'n_min' is 1, and 'n_max' is 1, then the
 * type is a single atomic 'key_type'.
 *
 * If 'value_type' is OVSDB_TYPE_VOID and 'n_min' or 'n_max' (or both) has a
 * value other than 1, then the type is a set of 'key_type'.  If 'n_min' is 0
 * and 'n_max' is 1, then the type can also be considered an optional
 * 'key_type'.
 *
 * If 'value_type' is not OVSDB_TYPE_VOID, then the type is a map from
 * 'key_type' to 'value_type'.  If 'n_min' is 0 and 'n_max' is 1, then the type
 * can also be considered an optional pair of 'key_type' and 'value_type'.
