a quick fix to save binary data properly

In extending protocol of ByteConversion, objects other than strings should not get converted to strings with str function then get the bytes out of those.

In my case, I needed to insert binary data of bytes or bytes-arrays that I get from UUID objects. Data type I set in schema is "binary". Converting bytes to a string actually gives you a string of reference address like "[B@5ee34b1b" which will always get saved as 11 bytes long binary data and the first 3 bytes will always be the same :)

Quick fix:

Object
#_(to-bytes [o] (to-bytes (str o)))
(to-bytes [o] o))

Thank you for sharing, Ben.
