Hide experimental APIs to unblock 1.11 release

A fresh perspective on the experimental-APIs issue just came to me: this should not hold up the 1.11 release. We were falling into the old trap of thrashing about debating how to do it, assuming we needed some solution for 1.11, but we don't. One of the rules of time-based releases: something that need not block it should not block it.

We should just pull the experimental APIs from the public API space (moving them into the private API space) and get on with the release.

This seems clearly the Right Way so I'm going to get on with it right away. Speak up if you see a show-stopper problem with that.
