Field based redaction

See original GitHub issue

It would be really nice to have a way to apply selective redaction (aka. hidden / secret values) on fields for classes marked @Serializable. I realize that you can probably write your own custom serializers but this seems like functionality that should probably be “out-of-the-box”.

Coming from the java world, there are certain libraries that do this already (see example in java immutables), so it led me to request this feature here.

For this use-case you can write your own encoder that know what fields should be masked (based either on annotation or simply by field name) and masks them appropriately.

You should consider to write it

If this is out of scope for serialization

Logging looks out of scope, a ToStringBuilder is more appropriate, there are several implementations for JVM.
