/**
 * "lifts" a function to be the specified arity, so that it may "map over" objects that satisfy
 * the fantasy land Apply spec of algebraic structures.
 *
 * Lifting is specific for {@link https://github.com/scalaz/scalaz|scalaz} and {@link http://www.functionaljava.org/|functional java} implementations.
 * Old version of fantasy land spec were not compatible with this approach,
 * but as of fantasy land 1.0.0 Apply spec also adopted this approach.
 *
 * This function acts as interop for ramda <= 0.23.0 and {@link https://monet.github.io/monet.js/|monet.js}.
 *
 * More info {@link https://github.com/fantasyland/fantasy-land/issues/50|here}.
