ORC-308. Add function to get subtypes by name.
This just adds the new function, which will be useful for specifying
properties for columns.
Previously the parser was allowing "." in column names, which doesn't match
Hive. I suspect we added that to support schemas from JSON. Now that we support
backquotes for column names, that would be a better fix.
