#' Retrieve results from a query
#'
#' Returns the result of a query as a data frame.
#' `dbGetQuery()` comes with a default implementation
#' (which should work with most backends) that calls
#' [dbSendQuery()], then [dbFetch()], ensuring that
#' the result is always freed by [dbClearResult()].
#' For retrieving chunked/paged results or for passing query parameters,
#' see [dbSendQuery()], in particular the "The data retrieval flow" section.
#' For retrieving results as an Arrow object, see [dbGetQueryArrow()].
#'
#' This method is for `SELECT` queries only
#' (incl. other SQL statements that return a `SELECT`-alike result,
#' e.g., execution of a stored procedure or data manipulation queries
#' like `INSERT INTO ... RETURNING ...`).
#' To execute a stored procedure that does not return a result set,
#' use [dbExecute()].
#'
#' Some backends may
#' support data manipulation statements through this method for compatibility
#' reasons.  However, callers are strongly advised to use
#' [dbExecute()] for data manipulation statements.
