/**
 * Class to make Avro immune from the naming variations of key/value fields
 * among several {@link java.util.Map.Entry} implementations. If objects of this
 * class are used instead of the regular ones obtained by
 * {@link Map#entrySet()}, then we need not worry about the actual field-names
 * or any changes to them in the future.<BR>
 * Example: {@code ConcurrentHashMap.MapEntry} does not name the fields as key/
 * value in Java 1.8 while it used to do so in Java 1.7
 *
 * @param <K> Key of the map-entry
 * @param <V> Value of the map-entry
 * @deprecated Use org.apache.avro.util.MapEntry
