            error_if_none: by default an error is raised if no record is
                found. With this option it is possible to disable this error.
            error_if_multiple: by default no error is raised if more then one

                With this option it is possible to enable this error.
            postprocess: function applied to every retrieved record.
                This function receives a dict as input and must return it

                second optional parameter ``hide`` indicating
                the confidential fiels to be obfuscated.
                By default a minimal postprocessing function is applied,
                obfuscating confidential fields and converting timestamps.
            hide: option proxied to postprocess

        All the remaining keyword arguments will be assumed to be ``name``s or
        ``uuid``s to compose the WHERE statement, according to their format.
        If the value corresponds to an array, the first element will determine
        if it is an name or UUID.

        For example:
            - ``wim="abcdef"``` will be turned into ``wim.name="abcdef"``,
            - ``datacenter="5286a274-8a1b-4b8d-a667-9c94261ad855"``

    This function chooses between ``names`` and ``uuid`` fields based on the
    format of the passed string.
    If a list is passed, the first element of the list will be used to choose
    the name of the field.
    If a ``None`` value is passed, ``uuid`` is used.

    Note that this function automatically translates ``tenant`` to
    ``nfvo_tenant`` for the sake of brevity.

    Example:
        >>> _compose_where_from_uuids_or_names(
                wim='abcdef',
                tenant=['xyz123', 'def456']
                datacenter='5286a274-8a1b-4b8d-a667-9c94261ad855')
        {'wim.name': 'abcdef',
         'nfvo_tenant.name': ['xyz123', 'def456']
         'datacenter.uuid': '5286a274-8a1b-4b8d-a667-9c94261ad855'}
