Playing with Java 8 Streams from the repl showed
we weren't eta-expanding, nor resolving overloading for SAMs.
Also, the way Java uses wildcards to represent use-site variance
stresses type inference past its bendiness point (due to excessive existentials).
I introduce `wildcardExtrapolation` to simplify the resulting types
(without losing precision): `wildcardExtrapolation(tp) =:= tp`.
For example, the `MethodType` given by `def bla(x: (_ >: String)): (_ <: Int)`
is both a subtype and a supertype of `def bla(x: String): Int`.
Translating http://winterbe.com/posts/2014/07/31/java8-stream-tutorial-examples/
into Scala shows most of this works, though we have some more work to do (see near the end).
```
scala> import java.util.Arrays

scala> import java.util.stream.IntStream
scala> val myList = Arrays.asList("a1", "a2", "b1", "c2", "c1")
myList: java.util.List[String] = [a1, a2, b1, c2, c1]
scala> myList.stream.filter(_.startsWith("c")).map(_.toUpperCase).sorted.forEach(println)
C1
C2
scala> myList.stream.filter(_.startsWith("c")).map(_.toUpperCase).sorted
