 Review comment:
   Should this method be returning a null value in case none of the nested 
fields of this struct match by field id?
   Instead of an instance of `BoundReference` with a null private attribute 
`type` would it be acceptable that we instead `throw new 
ValidationException("Cannot find nested field id %d in struct: %s", fieldId, 
struct);` ?
