namespace should be defaulted from containing definition
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AVRO-21
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-21
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java, python
            Reporter: Doug Cutting


Protocol and record definitions include a "namespace" specification.  
Currently, when one is not specified, it defaults to null.  Rather, it should 
default to the namespace of the containing definition, if any.

The specification document should probably also be updated to clarify that 
namespaces should use java package naming conventions, of a reversed domain 
name.
