Douglas Creager resolved AVRO-629.
----------------------------------

       Resolution: Won't Fix
    Fix Version/s: 1.6.0
                   1.5.2
         Assignee: Douglas Creager

In the new value API (AVRO-837), the analogous method is called {{avro_value_get_by_index}}.  We can leave this as-is in the old datum API, both for backwards compatibility, and because the datum API is deprecated anyway.

> The new function avro_array_get is a misnomer since it only allows you to grab a single datum from the array passing in the index of the datum.  It should renamed to reflect this behavior.  A suggestion would be to rename it to avro_array_get_datum_at_index().
