Disabled jcheck in all build-infra repos

Hi,
I have now explicitly disabled jcheck for all build-infra repos since
some of the recent changes in build-infra/jdk7 made jcheck fail when
trying to pull and update. The disabling was done on the server by
removing the directory ".jcheck" in the root of each repository, as
specified in the jcheck.py header documentation.
Alternative solutions such as disabling it locally in each
$repo/.hg/hgrc file (overriding jcheck=...) or the global ~/.hgrc file
where considered but rejected. The former needs to applied for each
cloned build-infra repo, and the latter will also disable jcheck for any
other standard Open or Closed JDK repo that actually requires it.
Also note that jcheck was never intended to be run on the build-infra
repos in the first place, allowing free form commits and rapid
development without bug IDs, as the changes are never intended to be
directly committed upstream, but selectively ported.
The fix was separately reapplied to all build-infra repos (no, it was
not merged...), including build-infra/{jdk7, jdk7-extra, jdk7-modules,
jdk8}.
Thanks
/Robert
