AVRO-3441: ServiceLoader for LogicalTypeFactory (#1590)

Automatically register LogicalTypeFactory classes using the Java 6
service loader upon startup. This works for any LogicalTypeFactory that
does not need constructor parameters.

> Manually registering a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} is cumbersome, but necessary if 
> creating the factory requires constructor parameters.
> For most cases though, a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} gets all the information it 
> needs from the schema. This makes it a good candidate for a SPI (using the 
> Java 6 {{ServiceLoader}} class). The PR demonstrates that this is quite easy, 
> because the interface already supports registering a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} 
> without any additional information.
