Update email plugins

• Most users are completely unaware of updates
  unless they are in the back-end of their site.
  This pull request adds a plugin which checks for
  updated Joomla versions. When there is an update,
  an email sends to the Super Users regarding the
  Joomla issues, bug fix and security updates every
  few weeks.

A Note On Routing

• The New routing system will not be in the 3.5
  release. The Routing is postponed until 3.6. The
  New routing work is not complete and has not
  been tested thoroughly. The production leadership
  team understands that the change in features can
  be disruptive and is an inconvenience to the
  developers expecting new routing we are truly
  sorry.

Backwards Compatibility break

• We have a backwards compatibility promise to make
  sure code doesnt break. However - there are
  circumstances that can force us to no longer keep
  this promise. In Joomla 3.5 this is the case. Due
  to changes in PHP 7, we had to rename the String
  class to StringHelper otherwise Joomla! cannot
  run on PHP 7. This is a minor change and we dont
  expect any issues from it.
