RFC: JEP JDK-8208089: Implement C++14 Language Features

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi Kim,

I like this initiative.  I'm wondering if some of these rules can be easily
codified or written into a jcheck style checker (ccheck?) so that Authors
can adhere to the conventions and not rely on a Human review to pick out
where that convention isn't met.

Cheers,
Martijn
