Cassandra scalar native queries return a List<Map<String, Object>> or List<RandomEntity> instead of List<Object[]>

[AntonYudin]

According to the specification, createNativeQuery(String) is supposed to return a List<Object[]>. Java EE 7 API

Right now if the persistence context contains an Entity defined, the query will return a list of a Entity class instances (I'm not sure how kundera decides which Entity to choose).

According to the test, Kundera returns a List<Map<String, Object>> if there are no Entities defined in the context.

If I were to create a pull request that will make kudera's createNativeQuery(String) compatible with the specification, would you consider merging it?

Thanks.

We created it for the ease it provides in getting an object (row value) by column name. We can make it compatible if it is a blocker or requirement.

We can discuss more about your pull request on gitter.
