Introduce scroll as alternative to getResultList

[lukasj]

Since Java 8 was much about streams, parallelism and so on, I guess it only makes sense to extends javax.persistence.Query to also offer a method, that returns something like hibernates org.hibernate.ScrollableResults. Since Java 8 introduced Stream JPA could introduce something like a ResultStream that additionally supports scrolling. This would make it possible to use JPA for big amounts of data

I guess this can be closed now since #99 was part of JPA 2.2?
