   Adds an overloaded next(amount) to Traversal that resolves to a Promise<Array> of up to `amount` result values, bringing gremlin-javascript to parity with next(n) in the Java, Python, .NET, and Go GLVs.

> The Java, Python, and .NET GLVs all support `next\(n\)` on Traversal to retrieve multiple results at once, but gremlin-javascript only supports single-item `next()` returning `\{value, done}`. This creates an API inconsistency across GLVs that makes it harder to write portable examples and documentation.      
> Currently, users must manually collect results in a loop to achieve batch iteration. A `next(amount)` method returning a `Promise<Array>` would bring gremlin-javascript in line with the other GLVs.
