## What is the purpose of the change When the fastread function was set to be the default in Avro 1.12.1, the behaviour around create GenericData objects changed. In the past, the GenericData returned standard and reliable "generic" data types that didn't involve casting or reflection, while SpecificData allowed the user to create "specific" java classes (including the `SpecificData.CLASS_PROP` and `SpecificData.KEY_CLASS_PROP` to control the representation of a STRING datum. Currently, fastread changed this behaviour to apply those properties to the GenericData model, which causes tests to fail in Parquet. This restores the original behaviour. ## Verifying this change This change added tests and can be verified by running the `TestFastReaderBuilderJavaClassTest`. ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? **no** - If yes, how is the feature documented? **no** -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
