Description

I am using ConfluentRegistryAvroSerializationSchema and blocked by a bug mentioned by https://github.com/confluentinc/schema-registry/issues/1352 and the final fix is done by https://github.com/confluentinc/schema-registry/pull/1839. I did not find any easy workaround.
 
Flink-avro-confluent-registry (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.flink/flink-avro-confluent-registry) still use 5.5.2 kafka-schema-registry-client which does not have this fix.
