There is no out of the box functionality for this, although it would
theoretically be doable with custom deserializer.
However, I suspect that it'd be easier to implement by reader json as
`JsonNode`, serializing record as JsonNode,
and modifying former with latter (leaving only properties for which
there are no non-null values), and then deserializing as record.
