[Draft] RFR: 8241463: Move build tools to respective modules

Tue Feb 9 11:18:10 UTC 2021

This is a re-post of a change that was posted as webrev prior to the 
Github migration. It is not ready for integration as-is, since it needs 
to be rebased to the current HEAD, and that is bound to be a non-trivial 
operation after this much time.

However, I think it is relevant to have this available as a Github 
review, in light of the closely relatedJDK-8257733. The idea of posting 
this draft review is to make it easier for reviewers to visualize the 
end result of both JDK-8241463 and 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8257733.>JDK-8257733. 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8257733.>

This patch will move the source code for the build tools into their 
respective modules, in a separate|tools|directory.
