Review Comment:
   This makes an assumption that the schema is `["null", T]`.
   This is true most of the time but it is not mandatory. Without having the 
schema in scope I see no way how to improve it.

Review Comment:
   ```suggestion
           if (n >= 2) { throw avro::Exception("Union index too big for 
optional (expected 0 or 1, got " + std::to_string(n) + ")"); }
   ```
