cli(ptb): pure type inference looks through references#25405
Merged
Conversation
## Description
Add support to the CLI to look "through" reference types when checking
whether an argument is a pure type.
## Test plan
The following invocation would have failed before, and now it succeeds:
```
$ cargo run --bin sui -- client ptb \
--move-call 0x3::sui_system::validator_address_by_pool_id @0x5 @0x0cf0a8d13f56cb4c675a74f9f8e646dc7c3e00c5e50da0d6c076b291f57f617f \
--dev-inspect
```
It failed previously because the argument was an `&ID`, but now the CLI
can understand that and still serialize it as an `address`.
