That's https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-80. String is not
currently used to represent Avro strings, Utf8 is. Yes, that's not very
friendly, and the error message is horrible, but it is a lot faster than
java.lang.String. We should either make java.lang.String work too or at
least generate a better error message.

That's sufficient to generate the schema, but don't think it will work
when you attempt to read or write the record. So fixing AVRO-80 will
take a bit more work than that.
