Unfortunately, this means that users now have to manually specify a
`TypeInformation` that they can get from
`TypeExtractor.createHadoopWritableTypeInfo(MyWritable.class)`.
I'm not sure how often people are using Hadoop Writables in their Scala
code but this is definitely something that will break.
