Feature similar to gson TypeAdapter

[hazra-mms]

What is your use-case and why do you need this feature?
We are currently using gson for serialization/deserialization in our project and was considering the kotlinx serialization as an alternative to this. We has a requirement where we convert field name for some of the objects for special use case ( i.e. replacing $ in a field name by \uFF04) which is currently implemented by implementing TypeAdapter and registering that type adapter in the GsonBuilder. Does kotlinx serialization have something similar?
Describe the solution you'd like
Would like to have some feature which would be able to accept specific type adapter in the factory while creating the json instance.

In case there are such feature available please feel free to update the ticket accordingly. Thank you.

No, we do not have any kind of global configuration. You can use any methods described in the documentation to override serializer: @file:UseSerializers, custom type alias, or contextual configuration.

also, it was discussed a bit here: #507, so I'll close this as a duplicate
