Request for Review (#4) : CR#8001634 : Initial set of lambda functional interfaces

[Mike Duigou]

I have posted another revision at 

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mduigou/8001634/5/webrev/

This version contains some method remaining in the {I|L|D}UnaryOperation and {I|L|D}BinaryOperator and a few Javadoc fixes.

The package javadoc ie. package-info.java, is known to be a weak point right now. We're still debating what must be said here and what would be better said attached to the APIs which consume these functional interfaces.

We don't anticipate many (any?) further changes to the naming before commit at this point.
