I propose we migrate to Joda Time for 1.1.

In particular, I propose that Record ditch Java Date/Time entirely in favor
of Joda Time. Since migrating from Mapper to Record will involve a port
anyway, what's one more breaking change among friends?

Lift's other uses of Date/Time should be deprecated in favor of Joda Time
alternatives.

Mapper should continue to support Date/Time.
