Exception it thrown during deserialization for generic base type

[hankovich]

Source/destination types

abstract class Base<T>
{
	public T Value { get; set; }
	
	public abstract string Kind { get; }
}

class Nested1<T> : Base<T>
{
	public override string Kind => "1";
}

class Nested2<T>: Base<T>
{
	public override string Kind => "2";
}

Source/destination JSON

{"Kind":"1","Value":42}

Expected behavior

Deserialization succeeds

Actual behavior

An JsonSerializationException is thrown with message Could not create an instance of type Base1[System.Int32]. Type is an interface or abstract class and cannot be instantiated. Path 'Kind', line 1, position 8.`

Steps to reproduce

var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings();
settings.Converters.Add(JsonSubtypesConverterBuilder
	.Of(typeof(Base<>), "Kind") // type property is only defined here
	.RegisterSubtype(typeof(Nested1<>), "1")
	.RegisterSubtype(typeof(Nested2<>), "2")
	.SerializeDiscriminatorProperty() // ask to serialize the type property
	.Build());
	
var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new Nested1<int>
{
	Value = 42,
}, settings); // {"Kind":"1","Value":42}

var @base = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Base<int>>(json, settings); // JsonSerializationException. Could not create an instance of type Base`1[System.Int32]. Type is an interface or abstract class and cannot be instantiated. Path 'Kind', line 1, position 8.
