Review Comment:
   Should we also recurse through map keys?

Review Comment:
   Do we need some error handling here? Am I right in assuming `mapCtx` will be 
null if the `parameterMapString` is not actually a gremlin-lang map? How would 
such an error propagate if the user provides a bad parameter string?

Review Comment:
   Am I right in understanding that this will result in all objects contained 
in the collection to be parsed by `GenericLiteralVisitor.visitGenericLiteral()` 
instead of `ParameterMapVisitor.visitGenericLiteral()`? Do we need more careful 
handling of collections and any composite types to ensure that they are 
recursively parsed through this class and not handed off to the unguarded 
`GenericLiteralVisitor`?

Review Comment:
   I think this should be kept out of scope from this work, but I'm curious if 
there may be demand to parameterize something like `CardinalityValueTraversal` 
in the future. That's a funky case which generally acts as a static value but 
is technically a Traversal.

Review Comment:
   I think it might be worth a few more cases which try to bury a 
terminatedTraversal deeper inside other collections/composite types.
