(supersedes previous #1697)
This PR attempts to address an issue I see with column selection of Koalas DataFrames. Pandas allows use of a Pandas Index object for selecting columns, e.g.
will work fine in Pandas but fail with Koalas as the type check in the DataFrame's getitem method does not include the Pandas Index type.
The changes here extend column indexing to all list like objects.
I've added to the test_dataframe test to reflect.
