Better error message on access to non-existing attribute
I believe column access via `__getattr__` is bad and shouldn't be
implicitly encouraged by the error message when accessing a non-existing
attribute on DataFrame. This patch changes the error message from 'no such
column' to the more generic 'no such attribute', which is also what Pandas DFs
will throw.
