* ## Notes
*
* -   If not provided a data type, the function returns a table.
* -   If a data type does not have a next larger data type or the next larger type is not supported, the function returns `-1`.
* -   If provided an unrecognized data type, the function returns `null`.
*
* @param dtype - ndarray data type value
* @returns next larger data type(s) or null
*
* @example
* var dt = nextDataType( 'float32' );
* // returns 'float64'
