without this change we're doing json assertions for payload that should read payloads as bytes
this is a workaround around the issues like https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-contract/issues/1701 and https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-contract/issues/1627 .
The problem is that due to the fact that we accept GString payloads where you can have complex json structures with consumer / producer parts, we are doing recursive analysis of that json structure. We're parsing the keys and values and then we're creating the final Json payload map. The issue is that sometimes the value is actually textual json which we shouldn't parse. We don't know that when the processing happens.
The workaround is about telling the framework to read the payload from a file as bytes and then simple equality check will happen without additional JSON assertions.
We will need to look into some better fixes for that in the future (e.g. 5.0.0).
