Hi All,

A week or so back, I created.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3683   (AVRO RUST)

I've been trying to figure out if I can implement a solution, however my
rust skills are not up to the task as yet.

This is currently blocking my use of AVRO-RUST for a new project to
implement an Industry standard communications protocol, which is based on
AVRO.  The standard makes extensive use of types referenced in other schema
files.   There are some 200+ schema files in the standard.

On further investigation of the issue, I noticed that if a simple Schema
also has AvroSchema on it, then the schema generated from this WORKS for
the nested types, but the one generated by parse_list does not.     (The
Schema from AvroSchema seems to resolve the nested types fine into the
resulting schema).

 NOTE: I CANNOT use 'AvroSchema' for my industry standard schema's, as they
use features AvroSchema does not support.  So need parse_list to create
valid schemas.

I think if  parse_list was changed to create schema's which correctly
contained the referenced types, rather than by ref, then this would work
fine.   I imagine it will also need logic to not duplicate any given schema
more than once.

Hoping someone can take a look at this.

Regards
Mark
