Description
It would be useful to be able to store a tuple with element of any of the supported types. The tuples would simply be stored as array, so we could just reuse the array bridge.
This will not be possible until Swift has variadic generics and we can conform tuples to protocols.

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests; start by reviewing the existing array bridge and the current Swift limitations around variadic generics and tuple protocol conformance. Done would require a supported way to store and retrieve tuples containing supported element types, with coverage showing the tuple round-trips correctly.
