    [WIP] [FEEDBACK] proposed API for "concurrent analytics"

    See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QUARKS-156
    Looking for comments for the API (not the impl yet).
    
    This proposed high level concurrentMap() is to "make the simple simple".  I suspect some lower level assets, that could also be directly used by apps, may be created to realize its implementation (more on that to come).
    
    Questions:
    - happy with the semantics and signature?
    - name OK?
    - should it be ``TStream.concurrentMap()`` instead?

> Consider a pipeline of *independent* analytics, each enriching some tuple with additional information:
> ```
> readings<T> -> A1 -> A2 -> A3 -> results<R>
> ```
> If the analytics are independent and non-trivial / time consuming, there's a desire to run the analytics concurrently for each tuple with a graph logically like:
> ```
>                            /->  A1  ->\
> readings<T> ->  |->  A2   ->| -> result<R>
>                            \->  A3  ->/
> ```
> I'm using the term "concurrent" instead of "parallel".  Java8 Streams', and IBM Streams Java API's and SPL's, use of "parallel" is for "parallel-tuple processing": multiple tuples, each being processed in parallel in its own "channel" of the same replicated pipeline of operations.
> I'm going to use a pull-request to capture API proposals/discussion.
