"G" is a set of functions for working with Graph at the detail triple level.

"Graph" is both a low-level internal API and also the abstract for implementation of a graph.

Actually changing "Graph" does not seem a good idea.

So G is a library that packages up little patterns of use of graph objects e.g. "getOne*", "getZeroOrOne*" or "all*" (get a set of nodes) - the handling of ExtendedIterator is hidden and the function name says what does better than a longer line of code using Graph/ExtendedIterator directly.

This has worked well in jena-shacl, so the PR moves it to a more general place, and collects up a few other small operations.

It is still in a package that isn't API so for a bit, it can change more freely.

Comments etc.
