I just discovered from a Discord conversation that it was not possible to create a new VariantArray and Dictionary from Java.
They both require a KClass which is a Kotlin STD object and the fake constructor we use for it is inlined when the actual one is internal. Inline functions are not visible from Java.
I created a new public constructor that directly take Java classes as arguments. Boilerplate to use, but we have no choice.
