/**
* Force fetching the next page of results for this result set, if any.

This method is entirely optional. It will be called automatically while the result set is
* consumed (through {@link #one}, {@link #all} or iteration) when needed (i.e. when {@code
* getAvailableWithoutFetching() == 0} and {@code isFullyFetched() == false}).
*
*
You can however call this method manually to force the fetching of the next page of results.
* This can allow to prefetch results before they are strictly needed. For instance, if you want
* to prefetch the next page of results as soon as there is less than 100 rows readily available
* in this result set, you can do:
*
*
* ResultSet rs = session.execute(...);
* Iterator<Row> iter = rs.iterator();
* while (iter.hasNext()) {
* if (rs.getAvailableWithoutFetching() == 100 && !rs.isFullyFetched())
* rs.fetchMoreResults();
* Row row = iter.next()
* ... process the row ...
* }
*
*
* This method is not blocking, so in the example above, the call to {@code fetchMoreResults} will
* not block the processing of the 100 currently available rows (but {@code iter.hasNext()} will
* block once those rows have been processed until the fetch query returns, if it hasn't yet).
*
* Only one page of results (for a given result set) can be fetched at any given time. If this
* method is called twice and the query triggered by the first call has not returned yet when the
* second one is performed, then the 2nd call will simply return a future on the currently in
* progress query.
*
* @return a future on the completion of fetching the next page of results. If the result set is
* already fully retrieved ({@code isFullyFetched() == true}), then the returned future will
* return immediately but not particular error will be thrown (you should thus call {@link
* #isFullyFetched()} to know if calling this method can be of any use}).
