Usually this would not be enough to figure it out, but I recalled
something... so it is probably this regression:
https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind/issues/3446
so depending on the version of Jackson, it'd be necessary to upgrade
to Jackson 2.13.3.
I am not 100% sure which version the problem started in but I'd guess
either 2.12.0 or 2.13.0: the root cause is due to Jackson
introspection being limited for JDK core types so a single-argument
Constructor of `StringBuffer` was not found and thereby explicit
deserializer is needed.
I hope this helps,
