    Description

      Similar to AVRO-3666, which introduces multiple schema parsers, I propose to introduce multiple, named, schema formatters.

      Names can be of the form <name>[/<variant>], there the variant part is optional.

      Initially, the list would be:

      • json -> alias for json/pretty
      • json/pretty > pretty{}printed JSON; replaces Schema.toString(true)
      • json/inline -> single-line JSON; replaces Schema.toString(false)
      • canonical -> Parsing Canonical Form (as per spec)

      Then, after merging AVRO-3404, we can also add:

      • idl -> to write schemata in IDL format, as requested in AVRO-1757
