[chore] deinterface the typeutils.Converter and update to use state structure (#2217)

* update typeconverter to use state structure

* deinterface the typeutils.TypeConverter -> typeutils.Converter

* finish copying over old type converter code comments

* fix cherry-pick merge issues, fix tests pointing to old typeutils interface type still
