Can this field be supported?

@abawchen @arunsureshkumar @adarshdigievo Any thoughts on this?

I believe supporting BinaryField may not be feasible, especially for large binary data, as we would need to convert binary data into encoded text.

Simillar to #174

@abhinand-c I don't think an automatic conversion will work for BinaryField since this can be used to store arbitrary binary data.

@xiangxn Can you give a bit more context here on the type of data stored and which Graphql scalar you expect the field to be converted into?

As a workaround for now, you may exclude the field from the MongoEngineObjectType to prevent getting this error. If you expect the BinaryField to be converted to a string, you can then define a custom resolver and convert the data explicitly inside the resolver.
