The State API supports direct storage and reading of byte arrays

[saber-wang]

Describe the proposal

https://github.com/dapr/dotnet-sdk/blob/master/src/Dapr.Client/DaprClientGrpc.cs#L789

Can I simply add 2 methods, for example

Task<bool> TrySaveStateByteAsync(
            string storeName,
            string key,
            byte[] value,
            string etag,
            StateOptions stateOptions = default,
            IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string> metadata = default,
            CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

Task<byte[]> GetStateByteAsync(
            string storeName,
            string key,
            ConsistencyMode? consistencyMode = default,
            IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string> metadata = default,
            CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

RELEASE NOTE: ADD support for saving and retrieving state as byte arrays without serialization to and from JSON

Just to clarify, this is asking for raw data from the state APIs instead of the Json path we have now?

@halspang Yes, because the value may not be json
