A FactoryBean for creating a Google Gson 2.x Gson instance.

Whether to Base64-encode byte[] properties when reading and writing JSON.

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