 * symbol. `true` implies the property should be included, and `false` will
 * exclude it. A sub-mask implies the property should be further masked
 * according to that sub-mask. The "AllProperties" symbol is used for objects
 * with dynamic keys, and applies a rule (either `true`, `false`, or a
 * sub-mask`) to every property in that object.
 *
 * If a property is excluded, its type is included instead.
