RFR: 8357275: Locale.Builder.setLanguageTag should explicitly state extlangs are allowed

It is not clear that `Locale.Builder.setLanguageTag(String)` accepts _extlang_ subtags in the input as well as what behavior occurs. Additionally, both this method and `Locale.forLanguageTag(String)` should mention their behavior when more than three _extlang_ subtags are provided. This PR clarifies the lack of context in the specification.
