/*
Reflection on type to create decoders, which is then cached
Reflection on value is avoided as we can, as the reflect.Value itself will allocate, with following exceptions
1. create instance of new value, for example *int will need a int to be allocated
2. append to slice, if the existing cap is not enough, allocate will be done using Reflect.New
3. assignment to map, both key and value will be reflect.Value
For a simple struct binding, it will be reflect.Value free and allocation free
