    Actually. The `param.valid` here is to skip the `UnresolvedFieldReference`.
    For example.
    ```
        val result = in
          .join(funcDyn('c, 1) as 'name)
          .select('c, 'name)
    ```
    will throw a `UnresolvedFieldReference`
    ```

    ```
    Because `'c` is an `Expression` which has't been resolved.

> In many of our use cases. We have to decide the schema of a UDTF at the run 
> time. For example. udtf('c1, c2, c3') will generate three columns for a 
> lateral view. 
> Most systems such as calcite and hive support this feature. However, the 
> current implementation of flink didn't implement the feature correctly.
