Description

TINKERPOP3-764 unified semantics of the Transaction.close() method. The original thought was to deprecate close but discussions on the dev mailing list:

made it apparent that it was better to implement AutoCloseable on Transaction and further enforce those semantics, specifically - enforce the default close behavior as "rollback" through tests.
