Add support for Java 8 Stream as return type in repositories [DATAMONGO-1165]

[spring-projects-issues]

Thomas Darimont opened DATAMONGO-1165 and commented

Since we don't provide an abstraction to stream results of a MongoDB query, Clients have to implement this functionality (via block fetching) manually if they have to deal with really large results.

We should provide a way to stream large results block-wise to a consumer
