public RepeatedField<string> SpecificInfoTypes { get; }
If this field is set, this infoType is a general infoType and these
specific infoTypes are contained within it.
General infoTypes are infoTypes that encompass multiple specific infoTypes.
For example, the "GEOGRAPHIC_DATA" general infoType would have set for this
field "LOCATION", "LOCATION_COORDINATES", and "STREET_ADDRESS".
