+Data container to store Parameteric Point Estimate (PPE) from a variety of types.
+
+Notes
+- `ppeType` is something like `:max/:mean/:modefit` etc.
+- `solveKey` is from super-solve concept, starting with `:default`,
+- `estimate` is the actual numerical estimate value,
+- Additional information such as how the data is represented (ie softtype) is stored alongside this data container in the `DFGVariableSummary` container.
