    This is a good addition, thanks for bringing to our attention @leventov .
    
    Unfortunately however we can't replace the std javac compiler with 
error_prone in the toolchain outright - we can have a separate option/target to 
do this, but it can't be the default. 
    
    I would recommend separating this into two jiras/pullrequests - one to 
change the build, the other to address the found issues.
    
    @leventov you mentioned "I'm not proficient in Ant" - perhaps one of the 
other folks could help with this? @anmolnar you mentioned hbase is using it - 
anything we can pull from there wrt how they integrate it into their build?
    
    ps. I like the idea of also getting this into 3.4 branch as well, which 
means it needs to be optional so that the user can run it when they have 
java8+, but otw not. Which matches my intent/statement above.
    
    pps. looks like there is a new version of error_prone, might want to take 
this opportunity to update the dependency version. I notice the library is 
ASL2.0 which is also good (license is in the COPYING file currently)
