Switch to Java 8
### What is this PR for?
Java 7 is now officially no longer supported by Oracle and Java 8 has been
released quite a while. We should take the opportunity to switch to Java 8.
### What type of PR is it?
[Improvement]
### Todos
* [ ] - Task
### Is there a relevant Jira issue?
**[ZEPPELIN-621]**
### How should this be tested?
* Build Zeppelin with `mvn clean -Pxxxx -DskipTests`
* Create some notes with spark/angular/shell interpreter and test some
basic use-case
This PR is low risk because Java 8 is backward-compatible with Java 7
source code.
### Screenshots (if appropriate)
N/A
### Questions:
* Does the licenses files need update? --> No
* Is there breaking changes for older versions? --> No
* Does this needs documentation? --> No
