 * The QueryInterface defines the minimum set of methods to be implemented by a database query.

 * It has support for getting [[one]] instance or [[all]].
 * Allows pagination via [[limit]] and [[offset]].
 * Sorting is supported via [[orderBy]] and items can be limited to match some conditions using [[where]].
 *
 * By calling [[createCommand()]], we can get a [[Command]] instance which can be further
 * used to perform/execute the DB query against a database.

	/**
	 * Sets the WHERE part of the query.
	 *
	 * The method requires a $condition parameter.
	 *
	 * The $condition parameter should be an array in one of the following two formats:
	 *
	 * - hash format: `['column1' => value1, 'column2' => value2, ...]`
	 * - operator format: `[operator, operand1, operand2, ...]`
	 *
	 * A condition in hash format represents the following SQL expression in general:
	 * `column1=value1 AND column2=value2 AND ...`. In case when a value is an array,
	 * an `IN` expression will be generated. And if a value is null, `IS NULL` will be used
	 * in the generated expression. Below are some examples:
	 *
	 * - `['type' => 1, 'status' => 2]` generates `(type = 1) AND (status = 2)`.
	 * - `['id' => [1, 2, 3], 'status' => 2]` generates `(id IN (1, 2, 3)) AND (status = 2)`.
	 * - `['status' => null] generates `status IS NULL`.
	 *
	 * A condition in operator format generates the SQL expression according to the specified operator, which
	 * can be one of the followings:
	 *
	 * - `and`: the operands should be concatenated together using `AND`. For example,
	 * `['and', 'id=1', 'id=2']` will generate `id=1 AND id=2`. If an operand is an array,
	 * it will be converted into a string using the rules described here. For example,
	 * `['and', 'type=1', ['or', 'id=1', 'id=2']]` will generate `type=1 AND (id=1 OR id=2)`.
	 * The method will NOT do any quoting or escaping.
	 *
	 * - `or`: similar to the `and` operator except that the operands are concatenated using `OR`.
	 *
	 * - `between`: operand 1 should be the column name, and operand 2 and 3 should be the
	 * starting and ending values of the range that the column is in.
	 * For example, `['between', 'id', 1, 10]` will generate `id BETWEEN 1 AND 10`.
	 *
	 * - `not between`: similar to `between` except the `BETWEEN` is replaced with `NOT BETWEEN`
	 * in the generated condition.
	 *
	 * - `in`: operand 1 should be a column or DB expression, and operand 2 be an array representing
	 * the range of the values that the column or DB expression should be in. For example,
	 * `['in', 'id', [1, 2, 3]]` will generate `id IN (1, 2, 3)`.
	 * The method will properly quote the column name and escape values in the range.
	 *
	 * - `not in`: similar to the `in` operator except that `IN` is replaced with `NOT IN` in the generated condition.
	 *
	 * - `like`: operand 1 should be a column or DB expression, and operand 2 be a string or an array representing
	 * the values that the column or DB expression should be like.
	 * For example, `['like', 'name', '%tester%']` will generate `name LIKE '%tester%'`.
	 * When the value range is given as an array, multiple `LIKE` predicates will be generated and concatenated
	 * using `AND`. For example, `['like', 'name', ['%test%', '%sample%']]` will generate
	 * `name LIKE '%test%' AND name LIKE '%sample%'`.
	 * The method will properly quote the column name and escape values in the range.
	 *
	 * - `or like`: similar to the `like` operator except that `OR` is used to concatenate the `LIKE`
	 * predicates when operand 2 is an array.
	 *
	 * - `not like`: similar to the `like` operator except that `LIKE` is replaced with `NOT LIKE`
	 * in the generated condition.
	 *
	 * - `or not like`: similar to the `not like` operator except that `OR` is used to concatenate
	 * the `NOT LIKE` predicates.
