If anyone's got any bright ideas why this fails, I'm all ears.

This is basically a band-aid on #1305 and similar bugs, which could occur when using a custom JSON scalar and trying to persist it to the cache. If the type of the typealiased JSON was
[String: Any?], which is expected, theas JSONEncodablewould fail to recognize several types that have that conformance in an extension, and those types need to be unwrapped manually.This is a band-aid rather than a permanent fix because once I can get the Swift codegen stuff going again, I'm going to rip all this
JSONEncodablestuff out in favor of aCodablesolution (you can see a preview of the more flexible part of this in the JSON type I'm using in the Codegen lib).But that's gonna be a hot minute, so band-aid it is!
