Description: 
Looks like @AvroMeta can't add reserved fields, like @AvroMeta("doc", "some 
doc") will have exceptions.
I would be greate if we have a @AvroDoc("some documentations") in

Looks like @AvroMeta can't add reserved fields, like @AvroMeta("doc", "some 
doc") will have exceptions.
Do we have a @AvroDoc or something similar to this?
