Description

When reading Parquet files, the schema converted type may not match the currently expected converted type.

For example when reading a C++ uint32_t the converted type expected is INT_32 when in fact it may be NONE which causes the read to fail.

There are a few similar cases I have found and I will submit a PR to address this issue.
