   I'm beginning to think we shouldn't do reserved keywords validation at all. 
Reasons being,
   1. standard sql behavior allows columns to have such names. By making this 
change, we're essentially forever banning use of certain words from Pinot 
tables. Might make migration of datasets from one source into Pinot difficult
   2. One of the motivations of doing this was reducing the occurrences of our 
open source users getting stuck on these words while querying. But this 
validation will move the problem from query time to ingestion time. It might 
not always be possible for users to change their source data names, so we would 
have to educate them on setting transform functions.
   
   I'll change this PR to include only the date time field spec validation
