RFR: JDK-8133680 add Stream.foldLeft() terminal operation

[Remi Forax]

Yes,
reconsidering old decision is healthy, but you need provide some data/good reason 
to explain what has changed. 
By example, I'm curious about the number of occurrences of forEachOrdered in the wild, given that fold left (a kind of reduce) will be even less used than a forEachOrdered (a kind of forEach).
