Draft JEP proposal: JDK-8200758: Packaging Tool

[Remi Forax]

Hi Kevin,
Just a small request,
can you call it something like jbundler and not jpackager, because usually in build tools the packager step is the step that create the jars, not the one that bundle the whole application ?

regards,
Rémi
