RFR 8155674: Move javac towards a "by-file" compilation policy

[Liam Miller-Cushon]

Hello,

As discussed here:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/compiler-dev/2016-April/010142.html

desugar requires supertypes to be translated before subtypes, which causes
classes to be translated separately from their compilation units when
'by file' is enabled.

The proposed fix is for desugar to translate the entire compilation unit of
any supertypes it encounters.

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8155674

Thanks,

Liam
