Wenchen Fan updated SPARK-19716:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
if we have a DataFrame with schema {{a: int, b: int, c: int}}, and convert it 
to Dataset with {{case class Data(a: Int, c: Int)}}, it works and we will 
extract the `a` and `c` columns to build the Data.

However, if the struct is inside array, e.g. schema is {{arr: array<struct<a: 
int, b: int, c: int>>}}, and we wanna convert it to Dataset with {{case class 
ComplexData(arr: Seq[Data])}}, we will fail. we should support this case.

> Dataset should allow by-name resolution for struct type elements in array
