In GA4GHclient: A Bioconductor package for accessing GA4GH API data servers

#' @title searchRnaQuantificationSets function
#' @description This function gets a list of RNA quantification sets matching
#' the search criteria.
#' @details This function requests to \code{/rnaquantificationsets/search}.
#' @param host URL of GA4GH API data server.
#' @param datasetId Id of the dataset to search.
#' @param nrows Number of rows of the data frame returned by this function.
#' If not defined, the function will return all entries. If the number of
#' available entries is less than the value of this this parameter, the function
#' will silently return only the available entries.
#' @param responseSize Specifies the number of entries to be returned by the
#' server until reach the number of rows defined in \code{nrows} parameter or
#' until get all available entries. If not defined, the server will return the
#' allowed maximum reponse size. Increasing this the value of this parameter will
#' reduce the number of requests and reducing the time required. The will not
#' respect this parameter if the value if larger than its maximum response size.
#' @return \code{\link{DataFrame}} object. \code{NULL} means no registry found.
#' @references \href{http://ga4gh-schemas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/schemas/rna_quantification_service.proto.html#SearchRnaQuantificationSets}{Official documentation}.
