JDK 12 RFR of JDK-8205615: Start of release updates for JDK 12 / JDK-8205621: Increment JDK version for JDK 12

[Jonathan Gibbons]

Joe,

javac Source.java

   83
   84     /** 1.11 covers the to be determined language features that will be added in JDK 11. */
   85     JDK11("11"),
   86
   87     /** 12 covers the to be determined language features that will be added in JDK 12. */
   88     JDK12("12");

It would be nice if the comment for 11 was updated.

javac Profile.java

Nothing wrong in your edit, but maybe we should revisit/restrict this 
feature in due course.

javac PrintingProcessor

OK, but RFE: since this is part of javac, perhaps we could replace the 
annotation with an
override of the getSupportedSourceVersion method, returning 
SourceVersion.latest.

jdeps Main

OK, but RFE: compute the list of releasesWithForRemoval, from 9 up to 
java.spec.version

javac test JavacTestingAbstractProcessor.java

OK, but RFE: perhaps we could replace the annotations with an
override of the getSupportedSourceVersion method, returning 
SourceVersion.latest.
