Eelco Hillenius updated AVRO-104:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: AVRO-104.patch

Uploaded patch that gets rid of the static methods of ReflectData in favor of 
using - now overridable - instances of ReflectData.

For convenience (and because I would expect more people to want to allow nulls 
when writing records through introspection, I'm exposing the null allowing 
specialization of ReflectData like this:

ReflectData reflectData = ReflectData.newNullAllowingInstance();

But people can provide any custom implementation.
