Unable to get correct total on query with GROUP BY

[Hendribcg]

Create a custom query with GROUP BY clause, it will return false number as total
As the current SQL query to get the total number of row is by using a count statement in SQL select, if we are using GROUP BY in our SQL it will return the count in the grouped rows instead of total row count. My workaround solution is by extending the _find function and adding _clearGrouping('group');
in the query for getting count numbers.

Expected behavior

Return count of total row not the count of grouped row.

Actual behavior

It return count of grouped row.

@daffl Are there any plans on fixing this bug anytime soon? If not, are you okay with me making a pull request to fix this? It would be nice to not have to override this service in order to get the correct total. I feel like this should be a fairly easy fix too (I think it's just a matter of adding a clearGroup call when initializing the countQuery variable).

A pull request with a test and fix is always welcome.
