Hello everyone,

I am seeking advice for a potential breaking change that I may introduce
with backporting the FasterXML version update (from 2.18.0 to 2.20.0).

The new version improves (as far as I understand the changelogs) the
efficiency of the CBOR serialization, leading to smaller serialized
objects. I believe that is the reason why the test (see backport PR commit
[1]) was failing and had to be updated.

However, I cannot estimate the impact of this change. I am not sure if the
different byte size could break compatibility with any existing
(serialized) data during an update (if the test checks the byte size there
is likely a reason). I believe there is no risk of backporting, but I
wanted to be sure before merging the version update to 9x.

Best,
Christos
