RFR: JDK-8230654: jpackage package-type dmg on macOS

[Alexander Matveev]

Hi Michael,

If you specified --temp to jpackage it will contain config folder with 
background image and script we running to arrange icons in DMG, so you 
can convert created DMG to be writable, re-run script and convert it 
back to read-only.

Currently no plans to add CLI to provide background image for DMG, but 
it is something we can discuss.
We will need offsets for launcher icon and application symbolic link 
folder to place it correctly on top of background image.

Thanks,
Alexander
