-----------------------------------

             Summary: Add possibility to integrate custom types into the 
TypeExtractor
                 Key: FLINK-3060
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3060
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Type Serialization System
            Reporter: Timo Walther
            Priority: Minor


As discussed in [FLINK-3002]. It would be nice if we could make custom type 
integration easier by defining an interface/static method that classes can 
implement to create their own type information. That gives users an easy 
extension point.

Custom integrated types need to be checked in `getForObject`, `getForClass` and 
`validateInput`. If we also want to support custom integrated types with 
generics `createTypeInfoWithTypeHierarchy` needs modifications, too.
