Description:
------------
A PDO method for limit the number of rows returned from a query, independent of the used DBMS. This feature is available in DBMS abstraction packages, like ADODB (and in Java JDBC too). Something like this:

function setLimit($limit, $offset);

Reproduce code:
---------------
$con = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test', $user, $pass);

$stmt = $con->prepare("SELECT * FROM table");
$stmt->setLimit(10, 2);

Expected result:
----------------
10 tableresults starting from position 2

Actual result:
--------------
Function not exists yet.

This same effect is achievable using the fetch method with the offset argument and limiting the results in your fetch loop.

It could be argued the offset and limit arguments should be added to the fetchAll() method though.

This is easily emulated using the existing fetch() function.
