    I just rebased on `tp32` and hopefully also addressed your suggestions. 
`Lambda` now implements a bunch of interfaces that mirror the Java functional 
interfaces from the traversal API:
    ```cs
    public class Lambda : IFunction, IBiFunction, IPredicate, IUnaryOperator, 
IBinaryOperator,
            IComparator, IConsumer, ISupplier
    ```
    This should make it easier for users to see where lambdas can be used. I 
also added a short note to the documentation about these interfaces for lambdas.
    
    With all these new interfaces there is now just one Java type left for 
which we don't have a .NET equivalent: `VertexProgram`. So the next release 
will again increase type-safety of the traversal API a lot.
    
    We are now down to just 5 ignored scenarios for `tp32` 🎉
    
    @jorgebay, you linked the Java `Lambda` interface in one of your comments. 
The same file also contains classes like `TwoArgLambda` that are very similar 
to the `Lambda` class I implemented in this PR, but they use [different methods 
for the different 
interfaces](https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.2.7/gremlin-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tinkerpop/gremlin/util/function/Lambda.java#L158)
 like:
    ```java
    public static <A> Consumer<A> consumer(final String lambdaSource,
            final String lambdaLanguage)
    ```
    Do we also want to have similar methods in Gremlin.Net? It would be very 
easy to implement and I can image that just having a `Lambda` object could lead 
to some confusion as to where it can be used.
