Stores the serialised form of value at data. data should be
large enough. See Variant.getSize.
The stored data is in machine native byte order but may not be in
fully-normalised form if read from an untrusted source. See
Variant.getNormalForm for a solution.
As with Variant.getData, to be able to deserialise the
serialised variant successfully, its type and (if the destination
machine might be different) its endianness must also be available.
This function is approximately O(n) in the size of data.
