  1. Update compile.source / target to 1.8

    The project would currently not build at all, as it already uses
    1.7 features like the diamond operator.
    
    Update to 1.8 so the project can build and reasonably recent features
    can be used.

  2. Speed up jarjar with prefix matches

    A common use-case for jarjar is to have rule with the format
    my.package.name.**, or even my.package.name.MyClass with no wildcards.
    Jarjar will convert that pattern to a regular expression and do regular
    expression matching on every symbol it scans to determine if the rule
    matches. This is very inefficient as most symbols will not match, and a
    simple prefix match can rule out the match in most cases.
    
    When parsing rules, extract the plain-text prefix of each rule, which is
    everything before the first wildcard. Then index all rules by their
    prefix in a prefix trie. This allows:
     - Avoiding slow regular expression matches in most cases, as jarjar
       can immediately observe that there is no matching prefix in the map.
     - Scaling in O(log(n)) with the number of rules when they have distinct
       prefixes (instead of O(n), as a matching prefix can be found from the
       trie instead of looping through all rules.
    
    This was tested to make jarjar faster on the Android codebase (running
    all jarjar rules to build a device back-to-back goes from 295s to 270s),
    while keeping outputs byte-identical, and providing significant speedups
    when many jarjar rules are used.
