[PIG-3485] Remove CastUtils.bytesToMap(byte[] b) method from LoadCaster interface

• Type: Task
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Fix Version/s: 0.13.0
• Component/s: impl
• Release Note: This is a backward incompatible change in LoadCaster interface. Any loader that implements LoadCaster interface needs to replace the deprecated method "bytesToMap(bytes[])" with "bytesToMap(bytes[], ResourceFieldSchema)".

Description

PIG-1876 added typed map and annotated the following method as deprecated in 0.9:

@Deprecated
public Map<String, Object> bytesToMap(byte[] b) throws IOException;

We should remove and replace it with the new method that takes type information:

public Map<String, Object> bytesToMap(byte[] b, ResourceFieldSchema fieldSchema) throws IOException;
