[Format] Struct type name consistency in implementations and metadata #2111

Note: This issue was originally created as ARROW-278. Please see the migration documentation for further details.

Original Issue Description:

As discussed in apache/arrow#121 for ARROW-262, the Struct name is reserved in Flatbuffers, so we temporarily used the Tuple name. We should either use a tweaked name like Struct_ that does not cause conflicts or choose a name for the Struct concept (e.g. Tuple) and use that consistently in format documents and implementation.

The least disruptive solution is to use the Struct_ name in the Flatbuffers IDL.
