Java 8 functional interfaces let callbacks shed anonymous-class ceremony while retaining compile-time type safety. This adds the requested modernization pattern so readers can see the direct method-reference replacement and understand when lambdas apply.

The new pattern includes complete metadata, related topics, and official lambda and method-reference documentation. It is inserted into the reciprocal navigation chain before the existing default-interface-methods pattern, with a Java 25 proof that compiles the modern callback example.

Fixes: #181
