Hello all;
This change originated as part of JDK-8006627 (which was also previously split
into JDK-8007398 as well). It adds an internal mechanism for performance
sensitive usages to create a string from a provided character array without
copying that array. This saves both in the allocation (and subsequent GC) as
well as the copying of the characters. There are a few places in the JDK that
return Strings which can benefit from this change.

Fear not, JDK-8006627 and JDK-8007398 will be revisited... For now it would be
to get this change in to allow other potential users to move forward with their
changes.

Looks good to me.
