NIFI-5805: Pool the BinaryEncoders used by the 
WriteAvroResultWithExternalSchema writer. Unfortunately, the writer that embeds 
schemas does not allow for this optimization due to the Avro API

This closes #3160.


> Avro Record Writer service creates byte buffer for every Writer created

> When we use the Avro RecordSet Writer, and do not embed the schema, the 
> Writer uses the Avro BinaryEncoder object to serialize the data. This object 
> can be initialized, but instead we create a new one for each writer. This 
> results in creating a new 64 KB byte[] each time. When we are writing many 
> records to a given FlowFile, this is not a big deal. However, when used in 
> PublishKafkaRecord or similar processors, where a new writer must be created 
> for every Record, this can have a very significant performance impact.
> An improvement would be to have the user configure the maximum number of 
> BinaryEncoder objects to pool and then use a simple pooling mechanism to 
> reuse these objects.
