AbstractProcessor overrides process(..) for no reason

[Joe Darcy]

Hello,

I think the occurrence of the placeholder for process  method in 
AbstractProcessor is innocuous. It doesn't result an a javadoc entry 
with the configuration options for the JDK doc build.

While looking at the class, I noticed some place where @Override could 
be used:

Thanks,
