This review request (add a new jdeps tool in the JDK) include changes in
langtools and the jdk build.  I would need reviewers from the langtools
and the build-infra team.

Webrev for review:

    http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/jdk8/webrevs/jdeps/jdk-webrev.02/

The jdeps source is in the langtools repo.  The change in the jdk repo is
to add the new jdeps executable.  I made change in the old and new build
for the addition of this new jdeps tool.  I discussed with Jon whether I
should modify langtools/make/build.xml to add a new jdeps target. Since
the old build will be replaced by the new build soon, I simply add
com/sun/tools/jdeps as part of javap.includes.

Alan,

The -d option is kept as a hidden option and use as implementation. We
can remove it when it's determined not useful in the future.  I also
rename -v:summary to -summary.

Thanks
Mandy
