/**
* An iterator which forwards all its method calls to another iterator. Subclasses should override
* one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing iterator as desired per the decorator pattern.
*
* {@code default} method warning: This class forwards calls to only some {@code
* default} methods. Specifically, it forwards calls only for methods that existed before {@code default}
* methods were introduced. For newer methods, like {@code forEachRemaining}, it inherits their
* default implementations. When those implementations invoke methods, they invoke methods on the
* {@code ForwardingIterator}.
