profiles: Mask Java 6

Bye bye Java 6! If you really still need it then gnu_andrew will
continue to maintain icedtea:6 in java-overlay but it is not supported
by Java team at all. IBM's JVM is still alive but downloads are behind
a registration wall and Java team does not wish to support it. haubi
may provide IBM updates though probably only for ppc-aix. Removal in
30 days.

 # Our old ebuilds require Java 6/7 and are most likely
 # vulnerable. Upstream has a new version targeting Java 8 but no
 # response from dotnet team. I am leaving ikvm-bin alone but only
