This AMT is only for Filecoin, which uses cbor-gen for all value types. For legacy reasons, the methods accept interface{} and fall back to to the refmt library for values that do not implement CBOR[Un]Marshaller. This represents unnecessary complexity, a minor performance cost, and possibly a vector for unwanted behaviour.
Let's remove support for general values, requiring cbor-gen.
