Review Comment:
Can these config `Parameters` contain GValues or traversals?

> Affects Versions: 3.7.4
> Reporter: Cole Greer
> Priority: Major
> Labels: breaking
>
> Currently, the Configuring and Parameterizing interfaces serve two distinct
> purposes. The most notable purpose is that these interfaces enable
> with()-modulation for a step. Additionally, there are a handful of steps such
> as AddVertexStep, AddEdgeStep, and AddPropertyStep which utilize Parameters
> to store their internal state. The dual purpose of these interfaces leads to
> strange behaviours such as the ability to set properties via with modulators:
> {code:java}
> gremlin> g.addV().with("name", "cole").valueMap()
> ==>[name:[cole]]
> {code}
> As part of the ongoing work leading to 3.8.0, we’ve extracted StepContracts
> (interfaces) from many steps including the ones listed above.
> These contracts expose new methods to interact with a step’s contents in a
> controlled manner instead of by directly accessing the
> Parameters (getElementId(), getLabel(), addProperty()…). The presence of
> these new interfaces creates an opportunity to escape the
> internal-state management role of Parameterizing, and change
> Configuring/Parameterizing to be purely focused on with()-modulation.
> We should isolate any state not related to with()-modulation from
> Configuring/Parameterizing interfaces. TinkerPop should never call the
> configure() method on a step except in response to a with() modulator, and
> that the Parameters returned by getParameters() should only contain
> configurations originating from with() modulators. Classes such as
> AddVertexStep may still leverage a second private Parameters objects to store
> its internal state, however this should not be publicly exposed at all. Any
> accesses and mutations of these steps should be forced to use the new
> contract interfaces instead.
