   The second problem happens at `ser_schema.rs:1455`:
   ```rust
       fn serialize_unit_variant_with_schema(
           &mut self,
           name: &'static str,
           variant_index: u32,
           variant: &'static str,
           schema: &Schema,
       ) -> Result<usize, Error> {
           let create_error = |cause: String| {
               Error::new(Details::SerializeValueWithSchema {
                   value_type: "unit variant",
                   value: format!("{name}::{variant} (index={variant_index}). 
Cause: {cause}"),
                   schema: schema.clone(),
               })
           };
   
           match schema {
               Schema::Enum(enum_schema) => {
                   if variant_index as usize >= enum_schema.symbols.len() {
                       return Err(create_error(format!(
                           "Variant index out of bounds: {}. The Enum schema 
has '{}' symbols",
                           variant_index,
                           enum_schema.symbols.len()
                       )));
                   }
   
                   encode_int(variant_index as i32, &mut self.writer)
               }
               Schema::Union(union_schema) => {
                   if variant_index as usize >= union_schema.schemas.len() {
                       return Err(create_error(format!(
                           "Variant index out of bounds: {}. The union schema 
has '{}' schemas",
                           variant_index,
                           union_schema.schemas.len()
                       )));
                   }
   
                   encode_int(variant_index as i32, &mut self.writer)?;
   // It goes wrong here
                   self.serialize_unit_struct_with_schema(
                       name,
                       &union_schema.schemas[variant_index as usize],
                   )
               }
               Schema::Ref { name: ref_name } => {
                   let ref_schema = self.get_ref_schema(ref_name)?;
                   self.serialize_unit_variant_with_schema(name, variant_index, 
variant, ref_schema)
               }
               unsupported => Err(create_error(format!(
                   "Unsupported schema: {unsupported:?}. Expected: Enum, Union 
or Ref"
               ))),
           }
       }
   ```
   But the actual problem is caused by `serialize_some_with_schema`:
   ```rust
       fn serialize_some_with_schema<T>(&mut self, value: &T, schema: &Schema) 
-> Result<usize, Error>
       where
           T: ?Sized + ser::Serialize,
       {
           println!("serialize_some_with_schema: {schema}");
           let mut inner_ser = SchemaAwareWriteSerializer::new(
               &mut *self.writer,
               schema,
               self.names,
               self.enclosing_namespace.clone(),
           );
   // This should peel the schema but doesn't
           value.serialize(&mut inner_ser)
       }
   ```
   The root cause is that the serializer is too lenient. It allows serializing 
an `Option<i64>` to a `long`, instead of only allowing serializing an 
`Option<i64>` to an `["null", "long"]`.
   
   @martin-g I think we should make `SchemaAwareStructSerializer` a lot more 
strict in what it accepts, that would also help with supporting enums with 
struct variants.
