/**
 * Helper class to perform property introspection and dynamic reading and writing.
 *
 * This class has symmetric implementation across all languages supported
 * by Pip.Services toolkit and used to support dynamic data processing.
 *
 * Because all languages have different casing and case sensitivity rules,
 * this PropertyReflector treats all property names as case insensitive.
 *
 * ### Example ###
 *
 *     let myObj = new MyObject();
 *
 *     let properties = PropertyReflector.getPropertyNames();
 *     PropertyReflector.hasProperty(myObj, "myProperty");
 *     let value = PropertyReflector.getProperty(myObj, "myProperty");
 *     PropertyReflector.setProperty(myObj, "myProperty", 123);
