Check out AEServer.callback_wrapper(). Basically it takes the value returned 
from your handler and aepacks() it. This works "automagically" for simple 
types like strings, ints, fsspecs, etc. (i.e. you return the Python value and 
it all works). If you need to return a value in a way that the automatic 
packing of aepack won't understand you can create a class with an __aepack__ 
method and return an instance of that.
