Description
### What would you like to happen?
Prism's goal is to simplify testing all the bits of beam, and it has it's first real use for this!
#23043 revealed that the Spark runner uses the "multi-chunk" iterable protocol, which isn't commonly used outside of the state backed iterable path.
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/model/pipeline/src/main/proto/org/apache/beam/model/pipeline/v1/beam_runner_api.proto#L859
This path wasn't properly tested for the singleIterate path in the Go SDK, revealing that the iterator being left undrained put the reader in a bad position for the next element, leading to a bug.
Prism should implement the multi-chunk iterable behavior, and have a means for configuring the iterable behavior from a passed in pipeline option.
The validation for this will come from tests in the Go SDK's exec package and validating that those paths are covered.
