@JackBuggins while `StructType` is definitely stable & public API, the
`toAttributes` methods was not. It was clearly marked as `protected[sql]` and
it returned a sequence of an internal catalyst type (`Attribute`). We can
always change those methods.
There is no real way to bring back this particular method. We can however
provide an implicit conversion that will make life a bit easier, e.g.:
```scala
implicit class RichStructType(val schema: StructType) extends AnyVal {
def toAttributes: Seq[Attribute] = DataTypeUtils.toAttributes(schema)
}
```
