As part of the library lambdafication, this patch adds a forEach
default method to Iterator, and converts remove() into a default
method so that implementations of Iterator no longer have to override
remove if they desire the default behavior, which is to throw an

I looked at the changes to Iterator, a few minor comments:
I think it would help to change "This default implementation" to "The
default implementation", it makes it more obviously normative (and so
testable) and might help for sub-types that override the method but
don't inherit the javadoc.
I assume the generated javadoc ends as a long paragraph, did you
consider putting in <p> tags to make it a bit easier on the reader,
minimally put the description of the default implementation isn't own
paragraph.
Should Collection have a lowercase "c" as it may be an iterator over a
collection that is not a java.util.Collection?
In forEach then it may be smoother to change "... execution subsequent
..." to "... execution then subsequent ...".
As per the other thread, if new methods are coming with the public
modifier then I think it should be added to the existing methods.
