function field_read_instances
Reads in field instances that match an array of conditions.
Parameters
$param: An array of properties to use in selecting a field instance. Valid keys include any column of the field_config_instance table. If NULL, all instances will be returned.
$include_additional: The default behavior of this function is to not return field instances that have been marked deleted, or whose field is inactive. Setting $include_additional['include_inactive'] or $include_additional['include_deleted'] to TRUE will override this behavior.
Return value
An array of instances matching the arguments.
