[FLINK-2690] [api-breaking] [scala api] [java api] Allows CsvInputFormat to use derived Pojos This PR adds support for the `CsvInputFormat` to use derived Pojos. In order to also find pojo fields defined in a parent class, one has to traverse the type hierarchy. This is done by the function `findAllFields`. While working on the `CsvInputFormat`, I noticed that the `ScalaCsvInputFormat` shared almost all code with the `CsvInputFormat`. In order to reduce duplicated code, both input formats now extend the `CommonCsvInputFormat` which contains the shared code.
