Description

ArrayWritableGroupConverter in Parquet-Hive binding expects that any array field contains either 1 or 2 fields. However, the schema which PigSchemaConverter generates, doesn't honour this condition. It can be reproduced through following code

```
MessageType messageType = new PigSchemaConverter().convert(ThriftToPig.toSchema(Requestlist.class));
DataWritableGroupConverter converter = new DataWritableGroupConverter(messageType, messageType);
```

Requestlist is a thrift class
```
struct Request {
1: required string id,
2: i64 time,
3: required string source
}

struct Requestlist {
1: optional list requests
}
```

**Environment**: Parquet-Pig - 1.3.2
Hive - 0.13.1
Elephant-Bird - 4.4
