RFR: 8009280: JCE jurisdiction policy files not copied into jdk/lib/security

Currently, the only way to get a valid build is to do an images build. 
Having to do a full image build adds too much time to the 
think/edit/compile/run environment.

The default target build:

     % make381

will not create a valid JCE environment.  The proper JCE signed files 
and policy files are not present.  Anyone trying to run the security 
regtests will get errors.
