Remarks
This operator produces all of the subsets of a given sequence. Subsets are returned in increasing cardinality, starting with the empty set and terminating with the entire original sequence.
Subsets are produced in a deferred, streaming manner; however, each subset is returned as a materialized list.
There are 2^N subsets of a given sequence, where N => sequence.Count().
