[jira] [Created] (AVRO-1318) Python schema should store fingerprints

Jeremy Kahn created AVRO-1318:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Python schema should store fingerprints
                 Key: AVRO-1318
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1318
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: python
            Reporter: Jeremy Kahn
            Assignee: Jeremy Kahn
            Priority: Minor


Python schema objects need to produce a simple representation that demonstrates their field identity.   {avro.schema.Schema} objects need to provide a {fingerprint} member field to enable quick checking of schema matching (even when the schema has other, possibly changed decoration).

Based on a patch pulled from [~laserson]'s proposed changes to make a collection of C-typing hints.  These changes will be backwards-compatible.
