GEODE-832: Modifying the dunit framework to allow lambda expressions

Lambdas can now be used for VM.invoke and VM.invokeAsync. For example

vm.invoke(() -> {System.out.println("Hello from remote VM")})
String value = vm.invoke(() -> {return "Hello from remote VM")

This theoretically could be more efficient than using anonymous
classes, because they do not capture (and Serialize) a reference to
the enclosing test class unless they reference state of that class.

> The dunit framework has a VM class with invoke and invokeAsync methods that take Runnable and Callable objects. 
> It would be nice to use lambda expressions with VM.invoke, but the generated lambda is not serializable. We should create a new interface, SerializableRunnable/Callable, so that a lambda will be created implementing Serializable.
