What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Technically map type is not orderable, but can be used in equality comparison. However, due to the limitation of the current implementation, map type can't be used in equality comparison so that it can't be join key or grouping key.
This PR makes this limitation explicit, to avoid wrong result.
backport #15956 to 2.0
