Description

Avro schema supports the creation of local timestampe fields:
```java

LocalTimestampMillis datetimeType = LogicalTypes.localTimestampMillis();
field = new Schema.Field(attrDesc.getAttributeName(), Schema.createUnion(datetimeType.addToSchema(Schema.create(Schema.Type.LONG), Schema.create(Schema.Type.NULL)), doc, null);
```
But since there is no support in the AvroSchemaConverter.convertLogicalType method, these fields end up as BIGINT (as reported in e.g. Apache Drill).
