Backporting two NPE fixes from master to branch-1.8
I cherry-picked the commits for AVRO-1966 and AVRO-1967 which are both
fixes for NPE situations that I would really like to be part of the next 1.8.x
release.
I only had conflicts in the CHANGES.txt and the build ran fine on my
machine.
Please double check if I did it correctly.

> Assume a schema with a record that embeds a record that is optional (i.e. the
