/**
 * Custom type in client's domain model.
 * <br/><br/>
 *
 * JaVers treats a custom type as a black box
 * and doesn't take any assumptions about its content or behavior.
 * It's a 'not modeled' type, somehow similar to unbounded wildcard type {@code <?>}.
 * <br/><br/>
 *
 * Values of custom type are compared by a {@link CustomPropertyComparator}
 * and registering it (see {@link JaversBuilder#registerCustomComparator(CustomPropertyComparator, Class)}
 * is the only way to map a custom type.
 * <br/><br/>
 *
 * Custom types are serialized to JSON using Gson defaults.
