RFR: 8206447: InflaterInputStream.skip receives long but it's limited to Integer.MAX_VALUE

Can I please get a review of this change which updates the API specification of `java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream.skip()` method to match its current implementation?

`InflaterInputStream.skip()`, just like `DeflaterInputStream.skip()`, takes a `long` value `n` representing the number of bytes to skip. When a value greater than `Integer.MAX_VALUE` is passed to this `InflaterInputStream.skip()` method, the current implementation in that method only skips at most `Integer.MAX_VALUE` bytes. `DeflaterInputStream.skip()` too has the same behaviour. However, in the case of `DeflaterInputStream.skip()`, this semantic is clearly noted in that method's API documentation. `InflaterInputStream.skip()` currently doesn't specify this behaviour.

The commit in this PR updates the `InflaterInputStream.skip()` to specify the current implementation.

I'll open a CSR for this change.
