Core-libs folk,
Please review the following change to add a new service provider class
java.util.spi.ToolProvider
which can be used provide simple "command-line" access to select JDK
tools, without starting a new JVM.
The following tools are updated to provide access through the new SPI:
javac, javadoc, javap, jdeps
It is expected that additional tools will also be updated to provide access,
but that will be done separately.
Compiler-dev folk may wish to review the changes to the langtools
repository.
