> While Avro reflect supports private no-arg constructors since at least 1.4.0,
> see [this test
> case|https://gist.github.com/cykl/bf8936fca0410d0cea61402bf5b1e5f9], Crunch
> mandates this constructor to be public for deep copy. It seems like an
> unfortunate shortcoming rather than a conscious choice.
> Since hiding the mandatory no-arg constructor can be quite useful to avoid
> API pollution, let's patch AvroDeepCopier to add support of private ctor.
