*Requirement*
It should be possible to generate data types from imported data models (java classes).
---
*Current scenario*
Currently, users can create Data Objects on Business Central. See:

However users cannot re-use Data Objects as Data Types.
---
*Description*
Data Objects (DO) are pretty similar to DMN Data Types (DT). So, would be great to import
the DO above as a DMN DT like the following one:

*Questions to clarify at requirement level*
1) Some DOs can be quite complex and some fields can be impossible to guess.
- Person
-- name (Some strange type)
-- age (Integer)
What should we do? Import name as "Any"? Remove the name field? Or block the
Person type?
2) Do we need a specific component to import Data Objects as Data Types? Couldn't we
just add Data Objects in the type dropdown, but use a different category (Default, Custom
Data Types, Data Objects)?
