Mercurial forests for JDK 8

[Brian Goetz]

We've got some "disconnected" forests too, such as lambda/lambda.  Our 
intention is not to pour code from there directly into tl (since our 
commits are not jcheck-compliant), but instead do a "curated merge" that 
is jcheck-compliant.  However, it still would be useful to have these 
repositories rebased to 8, to smooth out the process.
