RFR(s): 8171958: Several tests from java/time/test/java/time/format requiring jdk.localedata for execution

[Rachna Goel]

Hi Sergei,

Though I am not a reviewer, But I have one comment on this fix.

test/java/time/TEST.properties declares "modules = jdk.localedata" , so 
that all tests for java.time can have access to "jdk.localedata" module.

If we are restricting usage of jdk.localedata module for different 
tests, then TEST.properties need to be updated as well.

Thanks,
Rachna
