The problem is that, we don't really have a batch API in Spark SQL. We rely
on type erasure and codegen hack to implement columnar scan. It's hardcoded in
the engine: `SparkPlan#execute` returns `RDD[InternalRow]`.
if we have a RDD iterate over the rows in the batch, then whole stage
codegen will break, as it iterates the input RDD and cast the record to
`ColumnarBatch`.
