Can I please get a review of this change which proposes to fix 
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292317?

The `java.util.Iterator` has a `forEachRemaining(Consumer<? super E> action)` 
method. As per its contract, the implementations are expected to throw a 
`NullPointerException` if the passed `action` is `null`.

`java.util.Collections` has a couple of places where it wraps the passed 
`action` into another and passes that wrapped `action` to the underlying 
`java.util.Iterator`'s default `forEachRemaining` implementation which is:


Objects.requireNonNull(action);
  while (hasNext())
      action.accept(next());

Since the passed `action` is now a non-null wrapper, the implementation goes 
ahead and advances the iterator to the next entry and invokes on the non-null 
`action` to carry out its action. That non-null wrapper action then calls the 
`null` user passed action and runs into an expected `NullPointerException`. 
However, at this point the iterator and already advanced and that is what the 
bug is.

The commit in this PR introduces a trivial null check on the `action` very 
early in the call even before wrapping such an `action`. This prevents any 
further logic to execute if `action` is null.

New test methods have been added to the existing test class 
`test/jdk/java/util/Collections/DelegatingIteratorForEachRemaining.java`. This 
test class was introduced in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8205184 where 
this delegation logic was added for the `forEachRemaining` methods. These new 
test methods reproduce the failure and verify the fix.
