/**
 * This type is used for the {@link Delete}'s DSL API.
 * <p>
 * Example: <code><pre>
 * DSLContext create = DSL.using(configuration);
 *
 * create.delete(table)
 *       .where(field1.greaterThan(100))
 *       .execute();
 * </pre></code>
 * <p>
 * This implemented differently for every dialect:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Firebird and Postgres have native support for
 * <code>UPDATE .. RETURNING</code> clauses</li>
 * <li>DB2 allows to execute
 * <code>SELECT .. FROM FINAL TABLE (DELETE ...)</code></li>
 * </ul>
