Description
The Cassandra types and Spark types are tightly coupled in the same classes, making it difficult to deserialize Cassandra types without pulling in Spark as a dependency, We can split out the Spark types into a separate module by introducing a new TypeConverter that maps Cassandra types to Spark types. This enables use of the Cassandra types without pulling in Spark and also opens the possibility of other TypeConverters in the future beyond Spark.
