The version handling in LangUtil has been overhauled
to cope better with post 1.8 releases (JDK9 and JDK10 or 18.3
or whatever they call it). As part of this moved
to treating JDK9 as '9' rather than '1.9'. Also removed
duplicate version processing logic and had that defer to
the one place in LangUtil where we now deal with it.
Includes some generics tidyup in ajdoc. More ajdoc work
is necessary for Java10 because it removes the standard doclet
(old style). However trying to invoke the internal Javadoc
handler in Java10 is failing due to module visibility rules.
Fix 436653: conditional aspect activation plus various polish
Modified test expectation system so it is possible to say
the test cares about one particular message and the rest
do not matter (prefix message string with '*') - crude but
quick.
Polished many places to exploit generics
Upgraded all the tests to work on Java8 - some serious changes
regarding ajdoc on Java8. Hopefully it has stayed backwards
compatible with earlier JDK versions (e.g. if using AspectJ 1.8.3+
with a JDK less than 8) but no explicit testing done for this.
