[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] RFR: (JDK-8068619) - remove internal layout function to match ICU and harfbuzz

[Steven Loomis]

Should be a fairly simple request, deletes a function (unused by the 
JDK) which was removed from ICU and harfbuzz for security purposes.
cc: to the harfbuzz-dev list, I am requesting to land this in jdk9 first 
as it is not strictly harfbuzz related.

To be removed:

     virtual const void *LEFontInstance::getFontTable(LETag tableTag) 
const = 0;

This version returns the address of memory without any size indication.

Rationale is for syncup with ICU and with Harfbuzz's version of this API.
The version used by the JDK takes a size_t length.
Again this function is NOT called  anywhere in the JDK, and is internal 
as far as JDK's API goes.


Bug:https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068619

cr.openjdk.java.net locked me out after one successful post.  So the 
main .h change  is at this URL: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~srl/8068619/webrev.0/

And the complete patch ( webrev.2) is below.. I will repost it to cr 
once cr lets me back in.
