Support for optional fields when converting json to avro
Currently there is an issue when we want to convert json object to avro
using schema that allows optional fields (fields of type 'null'). When json
object does not explicitly have such field with 'null' value then is treated as
not conforming to schema. I added few test cases that illustrate this problem.
