> `toAvroType` converts spark data type to avro schema. It always appends the record name to namespace so its impossible to have an Avro namespace independent of the record name.
>  
> When invoked with a spark data type like,
>  
> {code:java}
> val sparkSchema = StructType(Seq(
>     StructField("name", StringType, nullable = false),
>     StructField("address", StructType(Seq(
>         StructField("city", StringType, nullable = false),
>         StructField("state", StringType, nullable = false))),
>     nullable = false)))
>  
> // map it to an avro schema with top level namespace "foo.bar",
> val avroSchema = SchemaConverters.toAvroType(sparkSchema,  false, "employee", "foo.bar")
> // result is
> // avroSchema.getName = employee
> // avroSchema.getNamespace = foo.bar.employee
> // avroSchema.getFullname = foo.bar.employee.employee
>  
> {code}
