Are there any libraries well suited to the manipulation of bits, bytes and byte arrays used in packet communication?
There is java.io and the currently unmaintained library kotlinx.io (they need more team members for that library).

Is it a good idea to use Google Guava library for Android development?
I am involved in the development of Android application which is a rather "thick" mobile client for a Web service. It heavily communicates with the server but also has a lot of inner logic too. So, I decided to use some features of Google Guava library to simplify development process. Here is a list of features I'm very interested in: immutable collections, base utils, collection extensions, functional programming sugar and idioms (common.collect and common.base), primitives utilities (common.primitives), hashing utilities (common.hash), concurrent utils (futures and AsyncFunction). Things I don't want to use in Android: common.cache (see question below), common.eventbus (we have better Android specific libs for this, such as Otto), common.io (we can use okio for Android now).

Why tools have Kotlin native to work with bytes?
Yeah Kotlin's own standard library is a lot smaller than Java's currently so you'll need to use something third-party for this. Okio is a popular option https://square.github.io/okio/ it has a Buffer type which is pretty similar to Java's ByteBuffer

Use okio, it is Multiplatform now. I use this for my own library KStore

Windows Central: "Microsoft to merge Surface Pro X ARM and Surface Pro 9 Intel versions under one product line"
For networking, file IO, and streams in general, there's Korio and for Java; for just networking, there's LiteNetLib for C#; for what looks like data streams in general, there's Okio also for Java; and Tokio for multi-threaded IO in Rust.

Kotlin Team AMA #3: Ask Us Anything
On JVM, there is plenty of existing solution already on for multiplatform uses I'd suggest checking amazing Okio library by Square, that seems to cover most of basic use-cases.

Kotlin Multiplatform - File I/O and de-compression questions
I think the main multiplatform library for I/O currently is okio, https://github.com/square/okio. As for compression, you should probably create an expect class for the compressor and use platform specific calls for actual compression. Take a look at https://kotlinlang.org/docs/mpp-connect-to-apis.html.
