jdk8 in 2.6

We discussed it before but it was quite some time ago. How about 
upgrading to jdk8 in 2.6 version?

- Java versions are now released more frequently
- 2.5.x will still be on jdk7
- Currently custom converters must be created to use java 8 date/time 
classes
- Currently date tag is useless with java 8 date/time classes
- Some benefits from streams and lambdas, probably :)

Processing Data with Java SE 8 Streams, Part 1<https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/ma14-java-se-8-streams-2177646.html>
Java SE 8 to the rescue! The Java API designers are updating the API with a new abstraction called Stream that lets you process data in a declarative way. Furthermore, streams can leverage multi-core architectures without you having to write a single line of multithread code.

I vote for Java 8 as well.  I already have clients moving to OpenJDK 11 and
are looking at all suppliers to upgrade their products.

Any of the underlying libraries (asm?) that have many versions ahead of the
current ones in Struts could also be brought up as part of 2.6

I'm fine with this, my only concern is that we will have to support
Struts 2.5.x a bit longer than I initially thought. It can be a big
problem for some users to switch to Java8, some of them are still
running Struts 2.3.x on Java6.
