Skips terms to the first beyond the current whose value is greater or equal to target.

Returns true iff there is such an entry.

Behaves as if written: 

            public boolean skipTo(Term target) {
            do {
            if (!next())
            return false;
            } while (target > term());
            return true;
            }
Some implementations *could* be considerably more efficient than a linear scan. Check the implementation to be sure.
