This change bumps the Windows devkit version used for Oracle internal
builds of the JDK to one based on Visual Studio 2017 15.9.6. In the
generator script, I removed the conditionals around subsections to force
the script to always generate the full kit. I've also made it a bit more
automatic in finding internal version numbers/directories as well as
added those version numbers in the devkit.info file. The old generator
script for 2013 and 2015 are hardly relevant anymore so removing those.
