 Review comment:
   I agree with you in the fact that `SchemaCoder` is an internal detail that 
regular users (authors of Pipelines) should not care about. I felt tempted to 
mark this method as `@Internal` however PTransform authors (e.g. IO authors) 
will find this useful (as I did for the PR I mention above for KafkaIO schema 
support), so probably worth to let it available, also I cannot think of a 
better place to put this method than here.
