Description

CASSANDRA-9530 added an import of DatabaseDescriptor in AbstractType, this import breaks Thrift based java code which uses AbstractType based classes to deserialize types. The max size value should be give to AbstractType in some other way that doesn't require importing DatabaseDescriptor.
