Title: [#543] Added fixtures support for Java projects

This adds support for fixtures in Java projects, like in Play 1.

For Scala projects, I'm not sure that this is needed, since working with case classes is even more concise and easy to understand than YAML, you can very easily write an initial data Scala object that can be run from tests etc. However, I think in the case of Java, where instantiating Java classes and setting properties on them is really cumbersome, I think fixtures are still really useful.
