Description
* Operating System version:w10
* Firebase SDK version: 13.1
* Firebase Product: Firestore
* Node.js version: 20.11
* NPM version: 10.3
When trying to store uint8array as Firestore.Bytes from admin-sdk throw a serializing error:
`Error: Value for argument "data" is not a valid Firestore document. Couldn't serialize object of type "Bytes" (found in field "binaryData"). Firestore doesn't support JavaScript objects with custom prototypes (i.e. objects that were created via the "new" operator).`
Uint8array seems to be the way to go, but then mismatch Web SDK (web sdk return bytes array as Firestore.Bytes objects).
#### Steps to reproduce:
```
import { Bytes } from "firebase/firestore";
const bin = new Uint8Array([0x48, 0x65, 0x6C, 0x6C, 0x6F]);
const fsBytes = Bytes.fromUint8Array(bin);
db.collection('your_collection').doc('your_document').set({
binaryData: fsBytes
});
```
