   `dict_id: i64, dict_is_ordered: bool` is useless when `DataType` isn't 
`Dictionary`, so look like they shouldn't be put in `Field`. And it will waste 
a little memory.

   I agree with it, I also think we don't have a particularly strong motivation 
to change it.
   
   I also have a question. If we change it, does this create incompatible 
behavior?
