   Hello! @nathaniel-d-ef 
   I have a question. I tried to read a file with the following metadata using 
arrow-avro and got an error. is it unable to read files whose root record name 
is not `topLevelRecord`?
   
   ```sh
   ➜ avro-tools getmeta ./testing/data/avro/nested_records.avro
   avro.codec      null
   avro.schema     
{"type":"record","namespace":"ns1","name":"record1","fields":[{"name":"f1","type":{"type":"record","namespace":"ns2","name":"record2","fields":[{"name":"f1_1","type":"string"},{"name":"f1_2","type":"int"},{"name":"f1_3","type":{"type":"record","namespace":"ns3","name":"record3","fields":[{"name":"f1_3_1","type":"double"}]}}]}},{"name":"f2","type":{"type":"array","items":{"type":"record","namespace":"ns4","name":"record4","fields":[{"name":"f2_1","type":"boolean"},{"name":"f2_2","type":"float"}]}}},{"name":"f3","type":["null",{"type":"record","namespace":"ns5","name":"record5","fields":[{"name":"f3_1","type":"string"}]}],"default":null},{"name":"f4","type":{"type":"array","items":["null",{"type":"record","namespace":"ns6","name":"record6","fields":[{"name":"f4_1","type":"long"}]}]}}]}
   ```
