Description

Expose typetree information through the new serialized-file command.

The typetrees are in the header of the serialized file and are exposed by the UnityFileSystem API (because we use them to read data for the analyze tool)

Alternative is to expose something through the "dump" command

Research direction

Start by tracing the new serialized-file command and the UnityFileSystem API used by the analyze tool, focusing on where serialized-file header typetrees are available. Clarify whether the information belongs in serialized-file or dump, then define the output and verify that the chosen command exposes the typetree data.
