Map.Entry with well-defined member names.
Using this class helps make Avro immune from the naming variations of
key/value fields among several Map. implementations. If objects
of this class are used instead of the regular ones obtained by
Map#entrySet(), then we need not worry about the actual field names
or any changes to them in the future.
Example: ConcurrentHashMap.MapEntry does not name the fields as key/
value in Java 1.8 while it used to do so in Java 1.7
