   [AVRO-4058](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-4058)
   
   ## What is the purpose of the change
   Other languages (i.e. Java) allow adding custom attributes in the schema of 
an array while the C++ implementation does not. The sparse spec states to allow 
all custom attributes ("Attributes not defined in this document are permitted 
as metadata, but must not affect the format of serialized data") and other 
projects using avro (i.e. Iceberg) depend on custom attributes in arrays.
   
   This PR allows adding custom attributes to arrays.
