Description
Hi guys,
there are sometimes when you want to parse the object partially. Java API provides this feature passing the writer and the reader schema. Is there any plan to support it or there is already a way to do it?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked Avro GenericDatumReader documentation, especially its writer-schema and reader-schema behavior. Then locate goavro's decoding entry points and determine how partial data should be represented. Done should include reader-schema support for decoding partial data, with tests covering schema resolution and the expected decoded result.
