Java SE Embedded 8u6 and JDK 8u6 for ARM released

[Lisa Selle]

The internal repo that 8u6 was released from was cloned from 8u-dev on 
Feb 26.  Here is the tag that was added to the repo just before the 
clone was produced:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u-dev/rt/rev/76d1ce5ed6f4

So, everything that went into 8u20 prior to that tag will definitely be 
in 8u6.  Any change set that went into 8u6 *after* that (and there were 
not many) will be associated with a jira tagged with fix version 8u6, 
and can be found using the query below.
