Review request for JDK-8030642: Add golden files to javac/limits

[Jonathan Gibbons]

As another general comment; I encourage anyone working on javac 
diagnostics to run the "diags-examples" target in 
langtools/make/build.xml to see what non-raw diagnostics look like in 
full context.   Maybe it doesn't apply here so much, since you are not 
creating new diagnostics, just testing them better, but the general 
comment still stands.
