Description
While trying to implement a simple Avro serializer that works in an OSGi environment I stumbled on the fact that SpecificData.getClass() only uses its own ClassLoader. Letting it fallback to the thread context class loader (TCCL) makes it more OSGi-friendly, as callers can then set the TCCL as needed.
AVRO-987, which hasn't been applied and is now stale, is about making Avro fully OSGi compliant and would fix my issue as well, but I tried to aim for the minimal changes that work for me (patch follows).
My use case is at https://github.com/bdelacretaz/avro-osgi-test - at commit e3b4c47839 there my test passes with the attached patch applied to avro trunk revision 1552851.
