    Unfortunately Hive is case insensitive and assumes all fields nullable 
(including nested fields in complex types), while for Parquet both case 
information and nullability are significant. That's one of the reason why we 
need to reconcile Hive metastore schema and Parquet schema in 
`ParquetRelation2`.
