> In order to support column comment in catalog (FLINK-18958), we should first 
> support column comment in Schema and ResolvedSchema. 
> The API is up to discuss. Currently, we already have 10 methods for adding a 
> column in {{Schema}}. If we want to support column comment for each kind of 
> column, the number of column methods may double. It's not easy to maintain in 
> the long term, and make the API complex. 
> Another alternative is adding a new method {{comment(String)}} which will 
> apply comment to the previous column. This is not a good builder style, but 
> can make the building concise. 
> For example, 
> {code}
> Schema.newBuilder()
>                         .column("ts", DataTypes.TIMESTAMP(3)).comment("log 
> timestamp")
>                         .columnByExpression("proctime", 
> "PROCTIME()").comment("processing time")
>                         .watermark("ts", "ts - INTERVAL '5' SECOND")
>                         .build()
> {code}
