TINKERPOP-1473: Given PathRetractionStrategy, PathProcessorStrategy can be
extended to support partial where() inlining.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1473
Extended `PathProcessStrategy` to support the following translations which
expose more traversals to OLAP processing (works around local star graph
violations).
```
where(as(a).out().as(b)) => as(xyz).select(a).where(out().as(b)).select(xyz)
where(as(a).out()) => as(xyz).select(a).filter(out()).select(xyz)
```
Next, given that `PathProcessStrategy` is prior to `InlineFilterStrategy`
you get this effect:
where(as(a).has(z)) => as(xyz).select(a).has(z).select(xyz)
```
You can see why `PathRetractionStrategy` is important. Without it `xyz`
(which are UUIDs in practice) would remain in the traverser's path data.
VOTE +1.

Added where(a.out.b) => select(a).where(out.b) AND where(a.out) =>
select(a).filter(out) to PathProcessorStrategy (an OLAP strategy). This opens
up more traversals that would otherwise break the star-graph local child
constraint in OLAP.
