[SPARK-10417] [SQL] Iterating through Column results in infinite loop

`pyspark.sql.column.Column` object has `__getitem__` method, which makes it iterable for Python. In fact it has `__getitem__` to address the case when the column might be a list or dict, for you to be able to access certain element of it in DF API. The ability to iterate over it is just a side effect that might cause confusion for the people getting familiar with Spark DF (as you might iterate this way on Pandas DF for instance)

Issue reproduction:
```
df = sqlContext.jsonRDD(sc.parallelize(['{"name": "El Magnifico"}']))
for i in df["name"]: print i
```
