You give the driver a byte[] (setBytes) or InputStream
(setBinaryStream); it does the rest. Old drivers such as build 213 will,
IIRC, convert this to a text representation internally before sending to
the backend; newer drivers will send the data directly without
conversion. But this is all transparent to the client.
