       mkchdr will generate a C header file from the given type table.  The C data structures will be written to
       the given output file.  If an output file is not given, the C header is written to stdout.

       The generated C data structure is the value representation that table driven encoder expects (and decoder
       returns)  for  the  type definitions in the given type table.  The table driven encoder and decoder, etc.
       routines do not use the generated header - they treat the data in a generic way.   The  generated  header
       file  simply  saves you the hassle of dealing with ASN.1 values in the same generic way.  Instead you get
       properly named structs and field names.  You do not need to use mkchdr to use the table  driven  encoders
       etc. but it is recommended.
