<Beans Dev> 6899147: java.beans.MetaData should not require JDBC to be present

[Alan Bateman]

Sergey,

As we discussed today, the persistent delegate for java.sql.Timestamp in 
java.beans.Metadata creates an undesirable dependency on JDBC. I'd like 
to change this to use reflection so as to eliminate the static 
dependency. This doesn't change anything at runtime in that this 
persistent delegate will only be loaded if the type is a Timestamp. I've 
put the webrev with the change here:
  http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~alanb/6899147/webrev.00/

For testing, I've run the tests in test/java/beans/XMLEncoder - the 
java_sql_Timestamp.java test in particular, provides good coverage.

Thanks,

-Alan.
