The Restructure node converts a nominal or flag field into a group of fields that can be
populated with the values of yet another field. For example, given a field named payment
type, with values of credit, cash, and debit, three new fields would be
created (credit, cash, debit), each of which might contain the value of the
actual payment made.

Example
node = stream.create("restructure", "My node")

node.setPropertyValue("include_field_name", True)
node.setPropertyValue("value_mode", "OtherFields")
node.setPropertyValue("value_fields", ["Age", "BP"])
