Thank you everyone for the terrific feedback. Lambda detection is changed
to use SerializedLambda as Stephan suggested (that was grant!).
In terms of naming, I do like Mapper, Reducer, FlatMapper, and CoGrouper.
The problematic ones are "Filterer", "Joiner", "Crosser", and "FlatJoiner". We
can live with those, or call them simply "Filter", "Join", etc, thus having an
inconsistent naming scheme (we should probably not use the name "Map" as it
would cause frequent conflicts with Java Maps).
A previous thought was MapFunctional, ReduceFunctional, etc, referring to
functional interfaces. Any thoughts on this?
