    I'll naively assume that the 2 latest commits didn't break anything.
    
    As an aside: I think we a) shouldn't have PR's for work in progress or b) 
clearly communicate that the PR is not yet ready for testing. The 4-6 hours for 
a full test run are pretty much wasted if someone keeps adding more and more 
changes.


> Support dropping traverser path information when it is no longer needed.

> The most expensive traversals (especially in OLAP) are those that can not be 
> "bulked." There are various reasons why two traversers at the same object can 
> not be bulked, but the primary reason is {{PATH}} or {{LABELED_PATH}}. That 
> is, when the history of the traverser is required, the probability of two 
> traversers having the same history is low.
> A key to making traversals more efficient is to do as a much as possible to 
> remove historic information from a traverser so it can get bulked. How does 
> one do this? 
> {code}
> g.V.as('a').out().as('b').out().where(neq('a').and().neq('b')).both().name
> {code}
> The {{LABELED_PATH}} of "a" and "b" are required up to the {{where()}} and at 
> which point, at {{both()}}, they are no longer required. It would be smart to 
> support:
> {code}
> traverser.dropLabels(Set<String>)
> traverser.dropPath()
> {code}
> We would then, via a {{TraversalOptimizationStrategy}} insert a step between 
> {{where()}} and {{both()}} called {{PathPruneStep}} which would be a 
> {{SideEffectStep}}. The strategy would know which labels were no longer 
> needed (via forward lookahead) and then do:
> {code}
> public class PathPruneStep {
>   final Set<String> dropLabels = ...
>   final boolean dropPath = ...
>   public void sideEffect(final Traverser<S> traverser) {
>     final Traverser<S> start = this.starts.next();
>     if(this.dropPath) start.dropPath();
>     else start.dropLabels(labels); 
>   }
> }
> {code}
> Again, the more we can prune historic path data no longer needed, the higher 
> the probability of bulking. Think about this in terms of {{match()}}.
> {code}
> g.V().match(
>   a.out.b,
>   b.out.c,
>   c.neq.a,
>   c.out.b,
> ).select("a")
> {code}
> All we need is "a" at the end. Thus, once a pattern has been passed and no 
> future patterns require that label, drop it! 
> This idea is related to TINKERPOP-331, but I don't think we should deal with 
> manipulating the species. Thus, I think 331 is too "low level."
