IVariableMap interface

Variable maps are container objects responsible for storing and managing the set of variables referenced on a workspace.

Any of these methods may define invariants about which names and types are legal, and throw if they are not met.

Signature:

export interface IVariableMap<T extends IVariableModel<IVariableState>>

addVariable(variable)
changeVariableType(variable, newType)
clear()

deleteVariable(variable)
getAllVariables()
getTypes()	Returns a list of the set of types of the variables managed by this variable map.
getVariable(name, type)	Returns the variable with the given name, or null if not found. If `type` is provided, the variable's type must also match, or null should be returned.
