To be able to compile code against JDK 8 types without having to use a JDK 8 to compile we need to add a library providing type mocks of JDK 8 types. Using JDK 8 directly currently causes a lot of pain in Spring Data builds as it requires to run with Spring 4 (which is a non-option for the Dijkstra release train as we have to preserve 3.2 compatibility) and breaks tests here and there as downstream libraries sometimes aren't compatible with JDK 8 bytecode (ASM I am looking at you!).

#65 - Added stub module for JDK 8 types.
7a92a11 
Added a build module to contain an abbreviated version of JDK 8's Optional to be able to add support for it as query method result in Spring Data Commons.

Client modules should refer to it with a provided scope to make sure it's not leaking into the user's projects classpath.
