RFR: 8024140: [TESTBUG] Profile based regression test groups for jdk repo

[roger riggs]

Hi,

There are going to be some gaps in compact1 testing if TestNG tests
are omitted.  For example, all of java.time uses TestNg exclusively.

The java.time tests do not use the XML input file configuration options
so perhaps the dependency on XML can be broken.
