* To scan everything for each row, instantiate a Scan object.
* To get all columns from all rows of a Table, create an instance with no constraints; use the
* {@link #Scan()} constructor. To constrain the scan to specific column families,
* call {@link #addFamily(byte[]) addFamily} for each family to retrieve on your Scan instance.

* To modify scanner caching for just this scan, use {@link #setCaching(int) setCaching}.
* If caching is NOT set, we will use the caching value of the hosting {@link Table}.
* In addition to row caching, it is possible to specify a
* maximum result size, using {@link #setMaxResultSize(long)}. When both are used,
* single server requests are limited by either number of rows or maximum result size, whichever
* limit comes first.

* To further define the scope of what to get when scanning, perform additional
