As per title: I decided that it make sense to finally increase the
Java/JDK baseline requirement for Jackson Streaming API to Java 8.
The same then goes for "jackson-jr" (the only pre-Java-8 component
above streaming).

The only component to leave as pre-Java-8 will be
"jackson-annotations" (no real benefit plus allows use by pre-Java 8
libraries)

We will be keeping 2.13 branch open for longer than usual for the
remaining JDK 6 / JDK users (mostly for possible security patches).
