It seems this problem only applies to `StructField`. Could we just
overwrite `typeName` with simply throwing an exception? I think users are not
supposed to call `typeName` against `StructField` but `simpleString` against
the type instance.
BTW, It apparently seems a bit odd that it extends `DataType` though.. I
guess probably some tests are broken if we change the parent as it seems it is
dependent on the parent assuming from
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1598. So, I guess minimised fix would be
just to overwrite.
