> We found it's been annoying for {{BatchTableSourceScan}} directly holding 
> {{TableSourceTable}}, and refer to {{TableSource}} further. It's ok if the 
> relationship is immutable, but when we want to change the {{TableSource}} 
> when applying optimizations, it will cause some conflicts and 
> misunderstanding. 
> Since there is only one way to change {{TableSource}}, which is creating a 
> new {{TableSourceTable}} to hold the new {{TableSource}}, and create a new 
> {{BatchTableSourceScan}} pointing to the {{TableSourceTable}} which just 
> created. The annoying part is the {{RelOptTable}} comes from the super class 
> {{TableScan}} still holds the connection to the original {{TableSourceTable}} 
> and {{TableSource}}. It will cause some misunderstanding, which one should 
> the {{Scan}} rely to, and what's difference between these tables. 
> Besides, {{TableSourceTable}} is not very useful in {{BatchTableSourceScan}}, 
> the only thing {{Scan}} cares is the {{RowType}} it returns, since this is 
> and should be decided by {{TableSource}}. So we can let 
> {{BatchTableSourceScan}} directly holding {{TableSource}} instead of holding 
> {{TableSourceTable}}.If some original information are needed, find table 
> through {{RelOptTable}}.
