Makes Scala 2.10 use Java 8 specifically.
Looks like there's a lot of work to be done in Scala for Java 9 support:
scala/scala-dev#139
scala/docs.scala-lang#1000
So it doesn't seem likely that the 2.10 and 2.11 series will get Java 9 support soon. So it seems legit to pin them to Java 8.
(I also tested the new Scala 2.10.7 release, whose release notes say it has "(partial) support" for Java 9, but it still broke under a Homebrew install.)
If this PR is accepted, I'll do the same for
scala@2.11
