RFR(s): 8072726: add adapter to convert Enumeration to Iterator

[Claes Redestad]

Hi,

any reason not to just have Enumeration extend Iterable and 
default-implement iterator()?

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/scratch/enumerable.00/

I guess there are compatibility risks I haven't thought through 
completely, but I
think concrete classes that already implement both Enumeration and 
Iterable should
continue to work as expected (since the concrete class' implementation of
iterator always takes precedence), no?
