Restore compatibility with Java 6 on branch 5.1

Description

Apparently while the readme in branch 5.1 promises compatibility with Java 6, this was mistakenly broken.

This JIRA to track and fix it.

The change in JDK compatibility will also be mentioned in readme.

The change in JDK compatibility will be added to the migration notes and will be updated on hibernate.org (http://hibernate.org/orm/releases/5.1/)

It turns out that upgrading dom4j to 2.2.1 (HHH-12964) requires JDK8 in 5.1.17 anyhow, so it will not be possible to restore compatibility with JDK6 in 5.1, so resolving this as "Won't Fix".

I have updated PR with proposed solution how to fix it.

Hi , Animal Sniffer is only used to warn us about unintended API changes.

If you just need to build it for Java 6 you can remove the plugin and/or ignore it, it won't affect the output.
