Module tags 

BACnet ASN.1 tag encoding and decoding per ASHRAE 135-2020 Clause 20.2.1.

BACnet uses a tag-length-value (TLV) encoding with two tag classes:

• Application tags identify the datatype (Null=0, Boolean=1, …, ObjectIdentifier=12)
• Context tags identify a field within a constructed type (tag number = field index)

Tags also support opening/closing markers for constructed (nested) values.
