Review Comment:
The major problem is that the check is meant to safeguard that the top level
Avro schema is either an Avro
record or a complex union.
If we add `case t: AtomicType => StructType(StructField("value", t, nullable
= true))`, it loosen the restriction and the top level schema could just be an
integer or something.
