RFR: 8158295 Add a multi-release jar validation mechanism to jar tool

[Oleg G. Barbashov]

Hi Steve,

I would also suggest to pass VM options to jar util in 
test/tools/jar/multiRelease/Basic.java:

  540         commands.add(jar);
+541         commands.addAll(Utils.getForwardVmOptions());

Also it seems that there is no need to compile classes using separate 
process:

526         String javac = JDKToolFinder.getJDKTool("javac");

It is possible to use jdk/test/lib/testlibrary/CompilerUtils.java instead.

Thanks,
Oleg

After the jar tool builds a multi-release jar, the potential resultant jar file is passed to the validator to assure that the jar file meets the minimal standards of a multi-release jar, in particular that versioned classes have the same api as base classes they override.  There are other checks, for example warning if two classes are identical.  If the jar file is invalid, it is not kept, so —create will not produce a jar file and —update will keep the input jar file.
