Description

Now that we have gogo 1.0.0 with nice JLine support, command completion, colours, history and more goodies, I think it would be nice to ship this as the default shell implementation with Felix.

This would make the bundles that are pre-installed with the distro as follows:

g! lb                                                                  09:49:44
START LEVEL 1
   ID|State      |Level|Name
    0|Active     |    0|System Bundle (5.7.0.SNAPSHOT)|5.7.0.SNAPSHOT
    1|Active     |    1|JLine (3.0.1)|3.0.1
    2|Active     |    1|Apache Felix Bundle Repository (2.0.8)|2.0.8
    3|Active     |    1|Apache Felix Gogo Command (1.0.0)|1.0.0
    4|Active     |    1|Apache Felix Gogo JLine Shell (1.0.0)|1.0.0
    5|Active     |    1|Apache Felix Gogo Runtime (1.0.0)|1.0.0

It does bring in the new JLine dependency which requires Java 8. I think at this stage most developers are using Java 8. For those that cannot use Java 8 they can use the alternative Gogo shell that does not depend on JLine.
