Summary:
The patch extends the iterator API with a new `columns` method which
can be used to retrieve all wide columns for the current key. Similarly to
the `Get` and `GetEntity` APIs, the classic `value` API returns the value
of the default (anonymous) column for wide-column entities, and `columns`
returns an entity with a single default column for plain old key-values.
(The goal here is to maintain the invariant that `value()` is the same as
the value of the default column in `columns()`.) The patch also involves a
smaller refactoring: historically, `value()` was implemented using a bunch
of conditions, that is, the `Slice` to be returned was decided based on the
direction of the iteration, whether a merge had been done etc. when the
method was called; with the patch, the value to be exposed is stored in a
member `Slice value_` when the iterator lands on a new key, and `value()`
simply returns this `Slice`.
