Augment FieldValueMetaData so it differentiates 'string' and 'binary' fields.

                 Key: THRIFT-946
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-946
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java - Compiler, Java - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7
            Reporter: Mathias Herberts
            Priority: Minor


String fields are not differentiated from binary fields in the meta data map. 
This is sometimes problematic when manipulating Thrift structs in tools such as 
Pig.

The included patch extends FieldValueMetaData with 'isBinary' field and method 
and modifies the java compiler so generated code correctly reflects the binary 
nature of fields in the meta data.
