### Search before asking - [X] I had searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/doris/issues?q=is%3Aissue) and found no similar issues. ### Description Doris' fe implements serialization itself in many places, mixing sequential writing of data and Gson. This solution makes it extremely difficult to guarantee the backward and forward compatibility of metadata after adding features. ### Solution Replace the whole serialization scheme of metadata with Gson and Protobuffer (Protostuff). This requires a near-irreversible upgrade (if only a few minor releases apart you can consider generating multiple serialization sequences at the same time to preserve the previous serialization). ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [ ] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
