> I've been working on a new interface for representing Avro values. The new
> interface supports custom implementations, which allows you to directly use
> instances of existing C types as Avro values. It also includes a "generic"
> implementation of the interface that's much faster and more space efficient
> than the old avro_datum_t class. Lastly, the interface includes support for
> zero-copy getters and setters for bytes, string, and fixed values.
