Java 8 bytecode to ptx

[Tom Rodriguez]

We pulled all of that code out of Graal a while back.  It’s all still there in the mercurial history though.  http://hg.openjdk.java.net/graal/graal-compiler/rev/8f2fb6bec986 <http://hg.openjdk.java.net/graal/graal-compiler/rev/8f2fb6bec986> is the major changeset removing the code.
