+/**
+ * Detects ambiguous self-joins, so that we can fail the query instead of 
returning confusing
+ * results.
+ *
+ * Dataset column reference is simply an [[AttributeReference]] that is 
returned by `Dataset#col`.
+ * Most of time we don't need to do anything special, as 
[[AttributeReference]] can point to
+ * the column precisely. However, in case of self-join, the analyzer generates
+ * [[AttributeReference]] with new expr IDs for the right side plan of the 
join. If the Dataset
+ * column reference points to a column in the right side plan of a self-join, 
users will get
+ * unexpected result because the column reference can't match the newly 
generated
+ * [[AttributeReference]].
