Description

Java 8 will introduce new default methods for the Map interface which clash with the existing method "V remove(K key1, K key2)" in our MultiKeyMap interface.

To avoid future problems rename the method (and other similar methods with more multi key arguments) to a more specific version:

• V removeMultiKey(K key1, K key2, ...)
• V removeKey(K key1, K key2, ...)
