Set default value for the ValueRank attribute of BaseVariableState and BaseVariableTypeState to ValueRanks.Any as in the specification

[mrsuciu]

Set default value for the ValueRank attribute of BaseVariableState and BaseVariableTypeState types and subtypes to ValueRanks.Any as specified in the specification.

Proposed changes

The default value used for the ValueRank attribute for BaseVariableState and BaseVariableTypeState type and subtype instances should be ValueRanks.Any. The attribute is omitted during serialization for efficiency purpose when the value is the default ValueRanks.Any, but must be set to the correct ValueRanks.Any value also when de-serialized in this specific case.
