The file GensrcCharsetMapping.gmk was not properly converted from the
old build system.
This leads to unneccessary output, incorrect dependencies, missed
chances for parallelization. It also breaks certain attempts to run
static code analyzers such as Parfait.
This change introduces the new API TextFileProcessing into jdk9. It's
been in the build-infra project for a while. Similar to the compile
constructs, we can setup a file (or a bunch of files) which needs
different kinds of text transformations. In this case, only the INCLUDE
functionality is used.
This is also the first in hopefully a series of patches that will try to
bring some order into the mess of generated/processed files. The
following rules have been used:
* Files that are almost java source files, but needs some text
processing, should be named "Foo.java.template" and live in the correct
place in src/classes.
* Files that provides data to any gensrc action, but that are not at all
java source code, should live in make/data/<descriptive dir>.
