Contributions summary:Rithin primarily contributed to refactoring and enhancing the `graphBinary.go` serializer within the `gremlin-go` driver, optimizing its performance and maintainability. Their work involved simplifying code, converting type serialization to lambdas, and adding error checks. They extended the serialization capabilities by adding support for various numeric types (Short, Byte, Boolean, Float, Double, BigInt), graph types (Vertex, Edge, Property, VertexProperty, Path) and time types (Date, Timestamp, Duration), significantly expanding the library's functionality. The user also integrated custom Set implementations into Path serialization, improving the handling of graph traversals.
