Support project() method for CouchbaseTemplate.findByQuery() queries

[khanium]

Currently, CouchbaseTemplate.findById() has a method project( fieldnames array ) that allows filter fields to project for a findById query.

Request
Add findByQuery().project() method for projecting only a given list of fields.

[khanium]

There is a .as(ClassType) that would allow do similar actions but it requires to define a projection class for that. It would be better also have project(array of string fieldnames) method

Thanks for your input. Is there such a feature in another spring data project we could follow?
Returning a Map<String,Object> might be a better result - all the data is not always String and also so the caller could know which Object was which property.

Hello @khanium findByQuery().project(string[] ) should be made available with the next spring release
