Reverse nesting depth

[Marcono1234]

Or maybe the nesting depth could still be incremented (like it is currently the case), but the maximum depth should be an additional parameter. Though that might make it more complicated.

When using the NBT protocol, it should be clear that the maximum depth must not exceed 512, see https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/NBT_format.

The #serializeValue(DataOutputStream, int), #deserializeValue(DataInputStream, int), #toString(int), #toTagString(int), #valueToString(int) and #valueToTagString(int) methods already provide a way to influence the depth of the structure, up to MAX_DEPTH.

It looks like this part of the wiki is an observation and only a limit imposed by Minecraft now.

Neither https://wiki.vg/NBT#Specification nor the original specification mention it.

Additionally since this library already supports custom types, it might be useful to allow custom nesting depths as well.

[Querz]

if that's the case, nothing speaks against a customisable depth. I'd prefer to invert it though, so you start with the highest number and approach 0, because this won't require an additional "limit" value.
