Propose Result as immediate replacement for ResultProxy
As progress is made on the _future.Result, including breaking
it out such that DBAPI behaviors are local to specific
implementations, it becomes apparent that the Result object
is a functional superset of ResultProxy and that basic
operations like fetchone(), fetchall(), and fetchmany()
behave pretty much exactly the same way on the new object.
Reorganize things so that ResultProxy is now referred to
as LegacyCursorResult, which subclasses CursorResult
that represents the DBAPI-cursor version of Result,
making use of a multiple inheritance pattern so that
the functionality of Result is also available in non-DBAPI
contexts, as will be necessary for some ORM
patterns.
Additionally propose the composition system for Result
that will form the basis for ORM-alternative result
systems such as horizontal sharding and dogpile cache.
As ORM results will soon be coming directly from
instances of Result, these extensions will instead
build their own ResultFetchStrategies that perform
the special steps to create composed or cached
result sets.
Also considering at the moment not emitting deprecation
warnings for fetchXYZ() methods; the immediate issue
is Keystone tests are calling upon it, but as the
implementations here are proving to be not in any
kind of conflict with how Result works, there's
not too much issue leaving them around and deprecating
at some later point.
