Review Comment:
   the `elementType` here will be a schema of the union, but with the null type 
filtered out - in the "extreme" case of an "optionable" union type of `[null, 
SomeSchema]` it won't even be a union anymore, just the bare `SomeSchema`  - if 
the `defaultVal` is `null`, it will not correspond to this derived schema 
anymore, and Avro will throw an exception when constructing the `Field` object 
- I'm not sure why this wasn't a problem before (maybe Avro didn't actually 
check this?)
