[eclipse-pmc] Approval needed for moving org.eclipse.core.resources plug-in to Java 1.5

This is a request to approve moving core.resources to Java 1.5. The
benefits are:
- making use of i18n libraries that aren't available elsewhere (e.g., high
surrogate support) to fix bugs like
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=310623
 - modernizing our API and using generics, varargs, enums, etc, where
appropriate
 - moving to Java 5 data structures that we previous had to maintain copies
of: Queue, CopyOnWriteList, etc.

Corresponding bug:
