NIFI-4951: Update convertToAvroObject to use the DataTypeUtils conversion
function
The feature allows users to convert from non-integral types to the correct
underlying type. The
original behavior is maintained; however, now simple conversions take place
automatically for some
logical types (date, time, and timestamp).
