[DISCUSS] Remove support for Java 7

All,

Java 7 has long reached the end of its life support, yet Tephra still
supports and tests with Java 7. After the recent change to use HTTPS, Java
7 causes repeated test failures, caused by its lack of support for TLS 1.2 (
https://central.sonatype.org/articles/2018/May/04/discontinued-support-for-tlsv11-and-below/).
I would like to propose ending support for Java 7 in Tephra.

Are there any projects actively using Tephra that rely on Java 7 support?

Best -Andreas

Looks like there are no objections. I have created
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEPHRA-304 and will send a PR soon.
