The patch didn't change original parse logic, it just repeatedly
save each single clear schema to a list in existed loop. I think
it's easy to maintain.
In the introspection patchset, I want to pass raw json expressions
to C code by a head file, then convert the json expressions to
qobject, then ...
At the end, I generated a expression with more metadata when visit
Ordered Dictionaries. So raw expressions were not used.
