/**
`RLMResults` is an auto-updating container type in Realm returned from object
queries. It represents the results of the query in the form of a collection of objects.
`RLMResults` can be queried using the same predicates as `RLMObject` and `RLMArray`,
and you can chain queries to further filter results.
`RLMResults` always reflect the current state of the Realm on the current thread,
including during write transactions on the current thread. The one exception to
this is when using `for...in` fast enumeration, which will always enumerate
over the objects which matched the query when the enumeration is begun, even if
some of them are deleted or modified to be excluded by the filter during the
enumeration.
`RLMResults` are lazily evaluated the first time they are accessed; they only
run queries when the result of the query is requested. This means that
chaining several temporary `RLMResults` to sort and filter your data does not
perform any extra work processing the intermediate state.
Once the results have been evaluated or a notification block has been added,
the results are eagerly kept up-to-date, with the work done to keep them
up-to-date done on a background thread whenever possible.
`RLMResults` cannot be directly instantiated.

/**
Registers a block to be called each time the results collection changes.
The block will be asynchronously called with the initial results collection,
and then called again after each write transaction which changes either any
of the objects in the results, or which objects are in the results.
The `change` parameter will be `nil` the first time the block is called.
For each call after that, it will contain information about
which rows in the results collection were added, removed or modified. If a
write transaction did not modify any objects in the results collection,
the block is not called at all. See the `RLMCollectionChange` documentation for
information on how the changes are reported and an example of updating a
`UITableView`.
The error parameter is present only for backwards compatibility and will always
be `nil`.
At the time when the block is called, the `RLMResults` object will be fully
evaluated and up-to-date, and as long as you do not perform a write transaction
on the same thread or explicitly call `-[RLMRealm refresh]`, accessing it will
never perform blocking work.
Notifications are delivered via the standard run loop, and so can't be
delivered while the run loop is blocked by other activity. When
notifications can't be delivered instantly, multiple notifications may be
coalesced into a single notification. This can include the notification
with the initial results. For example, the following code performs a write
transaction immediately after adding the notification block, so there is no
opportunity for the initial notification to be delivered first. As a
result, the initial notification will reflect the state of the Realm after
the write transaction.
