Following my suggestion in #8377 (comment), this PR updates the Syntax section of http://dotty.epfl.ch/docs/reference/new-types/intersection-types-spec.html, to state that & is just an normal identifier resolving to a type alias scala.&. At least that is my understanding of the current situation.

I would say judging from this comment, #7688 (comment) that any explicit leak of scala.& or scala.| should be treated as issues because these are compiler internal optimisations, rather than standard library
