Add support for prefetching fields This makes it possible to specify the fields that should be prefetched as part of a getForFields query. Doing a prefetch on a ReferenceProperty when it is known that the property will be referenced in (almost all) entities is far more efficient than doing the invididual fetches sequentially.

    This exception is raised when an invalid index is encountered, and has
    the 'silent_variable_feature' attribute set to true.  This ensures that
