It would be helpful to make clojure.spec available as a lib for 1.8.  I
have opted to backport clojure.spec (a 30-second copy/paste job) into our
application running on 1.8 for an easy transition, and maybe others would
be more comfortable bringing in a lib until 1.9 is further along.  That
would also allow related libs/fn-specs to show up and be useful sooner.
