      public interface QueryNodeProcessor

  A `QueryNodeProcessor` is an interface for classes that process a `QueryNode` tree.

  The implementor of this class should perform some operation on a query node tree and return the same or another query node tree.

  It also may carry a `QueryConfigHandler` object that contains configuration about the query represented by the query tree or the collection/index where it's intended to be executed.

  In case there is any `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree to be processed, it should be set using `setQueryConfigHandler(QueryConfigHandler)` before `process(QueryNode)` is invoked.

    `QueryNode`, `QueryNodeProcessor`, `QueryConfigHandler`

- - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `QueryConfigHandler` | `getQueryConfigHandler()` Returns the `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree if any, otherwise it returns `null`
    `QueryNode` | `process(QueryNode queryTree)` Processes a query node tree.
    `void` | `setQueryConfigHandler(QueryConfigHandler queryConfigHandler)` Sets the `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree.

    - #### process

          QueryNode process(QueryNode queryTree)
                            throws QueryNodeException

      Processes a query node tree. It may return the same or another query tree. I should never return `null`.
      Parameters:
        `queryTree` - tree root node
      Returns:
        the processed query tree
      Throws:
        `QueryNodeException`

    - #### setQueryConfigHandler

          void setQueryConfigHandler(QueryConfigHandler queryConfigHandler)

      Sets the `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree.

    - #### getQueryConfigHandler

          QueryConfigHandler getQueryConfigHandler()

      Returns the `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree if any, otherwise it returns `null`
      Returns:
        the `QueryConfigHandler` associated to the query tree if any, otherwise it returns `null`
