0.13

Primary changes:

• JVM stats for buffers and pools.
• Turn off doclint to allow build to work with java 8 (longer term #27).
• Switch from deprecated calls in ribbon-httpclient to ribbon-transport.
• Added experimental sandbox library for trying things before they are considered stable. Initial experiment is a distribution summary type that takes doubles instead of long.

0.12

Primary changes:

• Updated the statistics for timers when using the servo registry to include totalTimeSquared. Precomputing this gives us a convenient way to determine standard deviation across groups on backends that allow aggregation.
• Remove listener methods from Registry interface. For most of the interesting use-cases it was insufficient and a dedicated Registry implementation can do a better job of generating a meaningful stream of events.
