Description
Background: I'm writing `ParquetRDD` implementation to run on Apache Spark. One of the features I want to provide is the ability to create instance of `ParqeutRDD` with a projection (specify columns to be loaded)
Problem: Schema information is not serializable. Neither `MessageType` nor any other class that extends `Type` extends `Serializable`.
Question: Is there any specific reason why not to have it the `extends Serializable`?
If not, then I will be more then happy to provide PR.
