Byte Data Type v2

A Byte is an unsigned 8-bit integer. A byte array is a collection of bytes that some Node contracts use for binary content.

A single byte is authored as number, and a byte collection is authored as array. A System.IO.Stream remains the separate authored type stream.

Use the exact shape exposed by the selected Node Method. For large or deferred file content, prefer a compatible Stream contract instead of materializing the complete body as a byte Array.
