I'm ok with this, and as someone who runs these test frequently I am 
looking forward to being able to quickly run the different groups.

> The controversial item here is the definition of the jdk_collections group which, since collections isn't aligned to a directory, is defined by a list of sub-directories. Since the list of files is quite static and would not have changed since Java 6 (except for jdk_stream) I think we should be able to tolerate the not-too-long list of files for the jdk_collections category.

Not part of this change, but it would be nice to have a script (checked 
in ) that could parse the groups and report directories/tests that are 
not captured by any group, to easily identify future test additions.

The main advantage is that it's easier/quicker to test individual components. The intent is that the test groups are aligned with bug database sub-components.
