Add Enumerator::Lazy docs.

* explanation of the class concept, with examples;
  * docs for all class methods (most of them just say "Like Enumerable#<methodname>, but chains operation to be lazy-evaluated.", but I believe they are useful this way because now have proper call-sequences and link to corresponding Enumerable's explanations)
  * simplified example for ::new to emphasize the main concept
  * Enumerable#lazy docs are slightly lightened and linked to this class for more in-depth explanations.

/*
* Document-class: Enumerator::Lazy
* Enumerator::Lazy is a special type of Enumerator, that allows constructing
* chains of operations without evaluating them immediately, and evaluating
* values on as-needed basis. In order to do so it redefines most of Enumerable
* methods so that they just construct another lazy enumerator.
*
* Enumerator::Lazy can be constructed from any Enumerable with Enumerable#lazy
* method.
*
*
* lazy = (1..Float::INFINITY).lazy.select(&:odd?).drop(10).take_while { |i| i < 30 }
* # => #<Enumerator::Lazy: #<Enumerator::Lazy: #<Enumerator::Lazy: #<Enumerator::Lazy: 1..Infinity>:select>:drop(10)>:take_while>
*
* The real enumeration is performed when any of non-redefined Enumerable methods
* is called, like Enumerable#first on Enumerable#to_a (the latter is aliased as
* #force for more semantical code):
*
* lazy.first(2)
* #=> [21, 23]
*
* lazy.force
* #=> [21, 23, 25, 27, 29]
*
* Note that most of Enumerable methods that could be called with or without block,
* on Enumerator::Lazy will always require block:
*
* [1, 2, 3].map #=> #<Enumerator: [1, 2, 3]:map>
* [1, 2, 3].lazy.map # ArgumentError: tried to call lazy map without a block
*
* This class allows idiomatic calculations on long or infinite sequence, as well
* as chaining of calculations without constructing intermediate arrays.
*
* Example of working with slowly calculated sequence:
*
* require 'open-uri'
*
* # This will fetch all URLs before selecting
* # necessary data
* URLS.map { |u| JSON.parse(open(u).read) }.
* select { |data| data.key?('stats') }.
* first(5)
*
* # This will fetch URLs one-by-one, only till
* # there is enough data to satisfy the condition
* URLS.lazy.map { |u| JSON.parse(open(u).read) }.
* select { |data| data.key?('stats') }.
* first(5)
*

* Creates a new Lazy enumerator. When the enumerator is actually enumerated
