Remarks

Char-valued: each variant's numeric value is its ASCII character code, and that character is the only wire/text form this type has — there is no separate string representation. Use ToChar(InstrumentClass) to read it as a char. Upstream marks this type #[non_exhaustive]: Databento may add variants in a future release without that being a breaking change. Do not treat an unrecognized byte as necessarily invalid the way you would for e.g. Schema; it may simply be a variant this port has not caught up to yet. This type has no upstream default variant.
