The FIR object. FIR - Face Identification Record, biometric template.
FIR can be long (float[]), short (byte[]) or binary (byte[]). Binary FIRs are supported only for Builder version 211.
Generally you don't have to care about type of FIR, but it's important when implementing custom FIRs matching or custom FIR serialization.

Builder can extract long, short or binary depending on flag (produceLongFir) passed into Builder ctor. By default Builder extracts short (or binary if Builder version is 211) FIRs.
FirMatcher and FirList work with all types of FIR, but internally a copy of FIR will be converted from long to short (or to binary if FIR version is 211).
Serializer doesn't convert FIR during serialization/deserialization.
