RFR: (jaxp) 8003261 : static field is public but not final

[Tom Hawtin]

Not that it's particularly important, but it's /possible/ clients are 
relying on the non-compile time constant nature of this field causing it 
not to be inlined into client class files, rather than the ability to 
switch the version string. So it may be a good idea to add the final, 
but make it a non-compile time constant. We can also remove the duplication.

        public static final String fVersion = getVersion();
