/**
* An IteratorChain is an Iterator that wraps a number of Iterators.
*
* This class makes multiple iterators look like one to the caller
* When any method from the Iterator interface is called, the IteratorChain
* will delegate to a single underlying Iterator. The IteratorChain will
* invoke the Iterators in sequence until all Iterators are exhausted.
*
* Under many circumstances, linking Iterators together in this manner is
* more efficient (and convenient) than reading out the contents of each
* Iterator into a List and creating a new Iterator.
*
* Calling a method that adds new Iteratorafter a method in the Iterator
* interface has been called will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.
* Subclasses should take care to not alter the underlying List of Iterators.
*
* NOTE: As from version 3.0, the IteratorChain may contain no
* iterators. In this case the class will function as an empty iterator.
