RFR(13): JDK-8216263: Add historical data for JDK 12

[Jan Lahoda]

Hello,

I've regenerated the patch using JDK 12b30, and also using the patch from:
https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/compiler-dev/2019-February/012938.html

(which makes the historical record smaller).

The updated patch is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jlahoda/8216263/webrev.04/

How does that look?

Thanks,
     Jan
