`CompositeRelDataType` is the first custom type and thus not supported by
the superclass (`JavaTypeFactory`) that's why I had to override this method.
The super method does some copying logic and sets the nullability of every
field of the record. At the moment every field in the Table API can be null
anyway, so I skipped this logic here until we provide full nullabilty support
through the entire API.
