JNI VERSION CHANGE: RFR: 8145098: JNI GetVersion should return JNI_VERSION_9

[Rachel Protacio]

Hello, everyone,

We are moving forward with "JNI_VERSION_9". If it later turns out that 
it should be "9_0", we will file a separate bug, but the plain 9 is most 
likely. There is currently a compatibility request in the approval process.

Here is the updated code, which builds properly and still prints the 
correct version from my own private test.
hotspot repo webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rprotacio/JNI_hotspot.01/
jdk repo webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rprotacio/JNI_jdk.01/

Thank you,
Rachel
