This is a request against 8u-dev.

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8183979
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~prr/8183979.8u/

In JDK 10 we removed the old closed source KCMS color management library.
Since we expect to support 8u for some years to come, we'd also like to 
remove it from 8u,
since it already superseded there by LCMS and KCMS is just a liability.

The source is closed, but all the make files are in the open make 
directory, hence this RFR
