I propose to use this format:

for DATA_VALUE:

<expr type=cmp>
   [...]
   <cmpdata>
     <data_reg type=value>
      <len>N</len>
      <data0>reg->val[i]</data0>
       [...]
       <dataN>reg->val[n]</dataN>
    </data_reg>
  </cmpdata>
</expr>

This way we also export/import the len of reg->val (actually reg->len)

For DATA_VERDICT or DATA_CHAIN:
<data_reg type=verdict>
    <verdict>int</verdict>
    <chain>string</chain>
</data_reg>

assuming verdict and chain are always used together, despite of node
'<verdict>' or '<chain>' being not set (but present with no value)
