> Avro is a popular format for hbase storage. User may want the support
> natively in the connector.
> With the support, user can save serialized avro into hbase table, and then
> query on top of it using spark sql. The conversion between avro and catalyst
> datatype will be handled automatically. This is one way of support complex
> data types. Otherwise, user has to define their own customized Serdes to
> support complex data types.
