> This example fails with a "cannot encode null Integer" exception:
> {code:java}
> import com.google.common.io.ByteStreams;
> import org.apache.beam.sdk.schemas.Schema;
> import org.apache.beam.sdk.schemas.SchemaCoder;
> import org.apache.beam.sdk.values.Row;
> import java.io.IOException;
> import java.util.Collections;
> public class Main {
>     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
>         Schema schema = Schema.builder()
>                 .addField("a", Schema.FieldType.array(Schema.FieldType.INT32, 
> true))
>                 .build();
>         Row row = 
> Row.withSchema(schema).addValue(Collections.singletonList(null)).build();
>         SchemaCoder.of(schema).encode(row, ByteStreams.nullOutputStream());
>     }
> }{code}
> Note that null in the array should be OK, as the nullable parameter to 
> Schema.FieldType.array is true.
> An easy way of solving this could be to wrap inner coders with a 
> NullableCoder, but a better way would probably to have something like a 
> NullableIterableCoder that uses a bitset similarly to how the SchemaCoder 
> encodes nullable fields.
> I'll probably take a stab at fixing this and making a pull request.
