    Fix exception type in ReadOnlyStrategy reference docs
    
    The prose stated that a mutating traversal throws an IllegalStateException,
    while the accompanying code comments referred to a VerificationException.
    Make the prose precise and consistent by naming VerificationException and
    noting it is a subclass of IllegalStateException, and align the JavaScript
    and Python comments to the error types those clients actually surface
    (ResponseError and GremlinServerError).
