             Summary: python bindings for avro discard customized type 
information for primitive types
                 Key: AVRO-1545
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1545
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: python
    Affects Versions: 1.7.6
            Reporter: Dustin Spicuzza


Given the following avsc file:

{
  "type" : "record",
  "name" : "BrokenRecord",
  "namespace" : "whatever",
  "fields" : [ {
    "name" : "a_string",
    "type" : {
      "type" : "string",
      "avro.java.string" : "String"
    }
  } ]
}

The python schema parser discards the avro.java.string marker, which breaks 
interoperability with java. In schema.py, it discards the other property 
information and compresses the type down to just a 'string'.

Patch attached against the 1.7.6 release.
