Scope Considering Transactions section to Gremlin Server
The Considering Transactions section lives within the Gremlin Server
documentation, where each request is wrapped in its own transaction and
auto-committed on success. Its intro sentence framed transactions
generally, which made the per-request auto-commit statements (e.g. a bare
g.addV being persisted without an explicit commit()) read as applying to
all execution contexts. That is not accurate for embedded/console use of
a transactional graph such as TinkerTransactionGraph, where the
transaction stays open and a rollback() discards the change. Reword the
intro sentence to scope the section to traversals sent to Gremlin Server,
which makes the existing statements correct without other changes.

==== Considering Transactions
-Every traversal executes within a transaction. TinkerPop distinguishes between
two modes:
+Every traversal sent to Gremlin Server executes within a transaction. There
are two transactional modes to distinguish from each other:
* *Implicit transactions* are the default. Each traversal submitted through
`g` is a self-contained unit of work. All
graphs participate in implicit transactions. When the graph supports explicit
transactions, implicit transactions are
