1	This method is called once for each change.
2	This query fetches the changes from the database.
3	The cursor is moved forward to keep it up-to-date. This may not be necessary in your use case. See Cursor Management for details.
4	A function is called once for each change.
5	Note that the cursor defined outside the anonymous function is updated. `session.executeRead` might re-try the query, re-running the inner anonymous function. To avoid seeing the same change twice, update the cursor as the changes are applied.
6	Use this function to get the earliest available change id.
7	Use this function to get the current change id.
8	The results may be filtered to return a subset of changes. The out-commented line would select only node changes and exclude all relationship changes.
9	Call `queryChanges` repeatedly, using the cursor from the previous call.
10	Call `driver.close()` when the loop should be terminated.
