Record Fields

Record Field	Description
`Exact` Signature: ConversionKind Modifiers: static	Specifies that the type has to match exactly and no conversions are performed.
`Flexible` Signature: ConversionKind Modifiers: static	Allows the use of arbitrary .NET conversions. This uses `Convert.ChangeType`, which performs numerical conversions, parsing of strings, uses `IConvertable` and more.
`Safe` Signature: ConversionKind Modifiers: static	Allows conversions that widen numeric types, but nothing else. This includes conversions on decimals `decimal -> float32 -> float` and also from integers to floating points (`int -> decimal` etc.)
