Issue:
Base64 serialization of binary fields
[RFC7643 §2.3.6](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7643#section-2.3.6) indicates that binary fields should be encoded in base64.

```
The attribute value MUST be base64 encoded as
   specified in [Section 4 of [RFC4648]](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4648#section-4).  In cases where a URL-safe
   encoding is required, the attribute definition MAY specify that
   base64 URL encoding be used as per [Section 5 of [RFC4648]](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4648#section-5).  Unless
   otherwise specified in the attribute definition, trailing padding
   characters MAY be omitted ("=").
```

There should be validators and serializers for that.
