> Using named keys in keyBy() for nested POJO types results in failure. The 
> iindexes for named key fields are used inconsistently with nested POJO types. 
> In particular, {{PojoTypeInfo.getFlatFields()}} returns the field's position 
> after (apparently) flattening the structure but is referenced in the 
> unflattened version of the POJO type by {{PojoTypeInfo.getTypeAt()}}.
> In the example below, getFlatFields() returns positions 0, 1, and 14. These 
> positions appear correct in the flattened structure of the Data class. 
> However, in {{KeySelector<X, Tuple> getSelectorForKeys(Keys<X> keys, 
> TypeInformation<X> typeInfo, ExecutionConfig executionConfig)}}, a call to 
> {{compositeType.getTypeAt(logicalKeyPositions[i])}} for the third key results 
> {{PojoTypeInfo.getTypeAt()}} declaring it out of range, as it compares the 
> length of the directly named fields of the object vs the length of flattened 
> version of that type.
> Concrete Example:
> Consider this graph:
> {code}
> DataStream<TimesliceData> dataStream = see.addSource(new 
> FlinkKafkaConsumer08<>(timesliceConstants.topic, new DataDeserialzer(), 
> kafkaConsumerProperties));
> dataStream
>       .flatMap(new DataMapper())
>       .keyBy("aaa", "abc", "wxyz")
> {code}
> {{DataDeserialzer}} returns a "NativeDataFormat" object; {{DataMapper}} takes 
> this NativeDataFormat object and extracts individual Data objects: {code}
> public class Data {
>     public int aaa;
>     public int abc;
>     public long wxyz;
>     public int t1;
>     public int t2;
>     public Policy policy;
>     public Stats stats;
>     public Data() {}
> {code}
> A {{Policy}} object is an instance of this class:
> {code}
> public class Policy {
>     public short a;
>     public short b;
>     public boolean c;
>     public boolean d;
>     public Policy() {}
> }
> {code}
> A {{Stats}} object is an instance of this class:
> {code}
> public class Stats {
>     public long count;
>     public float a;
>     public float b;
>     public float c;
>     public float d;
>     public float e;
>     public Stats() {}
> }
> {code}
