RFR: JDK-8160728: Update compare script to clean baseline

Several things have happened recently that affect the compare script's 
ability to do clean comparisons for build change verification.

* The SystemModules.class has even more randomness in it and it 
currently doesn't look like it can be reliably compared at all.
* The new lib/classlist file may have lines in different order between 
builds.
* Support comparing the new licensee-src build mode.

By fixing this I'm again able to do a full -testset buildinfra JPRT 
COMPARE_BUILD build using an empty patch and get a clean result.
