#3710: ST_AsMVT doesn't support numeric or arrays
---------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  stvn     |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium   |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.4.0
Component:  postgis  |    Version:  trunk
 Keywords:           |
---------------------+---------------------------
 I'm using r15304 and I have a table with a numeric (numeric(16,0)), a
 numeric array (numeric[]) and a string array and I want to produce mapbox
 vector tiles with the new ST_AsMVT function.

 However ST_AsMVT fails on the numeric with the error:
 ERROR:  parse_values: numeric type not supported

 When I cast the numeric to a bigint the query continues without a hitch
 and the value shows up in the feature properties.

 However the arrays don't appear, nor does the query produce any error.

 I would have expected the values of the arrays to be stored as arrays of
 values in the feature property, or at least produce an error.
