          public static com.google.gson.GsonBuilder gsonBuilderWithBase64EncodedByteArrays()

      Obtain a `GsonBuilder` which Base64-encodes `byte[]` properties when reading and writing JSON.

      A custom `TypeAdapter` will be registered via `GsonBuilder.registerTypeHierarchyAdapter(Class, Object)` which serializes a `byte[]` property to and from a Base64-encoded String instead of a JSON array.
