RFR: 8168140: TypedArrays should implement ES6 iterator protocol

[Hannes Wallnöfer]

Thanks, Sundar. I uploaded a new webrev with static utility methods for all array iterators:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hannesw/8168140/webrev.01/

Also, I removed the „values" methods from typed arrays. We don’t yet support other TypedArray methods specified in ES6, and the purpose of this patch is to just support for-of loops for which only the @@iterator method is needed. I also updated the Jira description to reflect this.
