[14] RFR(S/T) : 8235866 : bump jtreg requiredVersion to 4.2b16

[Jonathan Gibbons]

I've been trying to contact AdoptOpenJDK folk about this and other 
related issues. I've not heard back yet.

In the meantime, I note that these days it is reasonably easy for folk 
to build jtreg if they do not have easy access to the latest prebuilt 
binaries. There's a README in the root of the jtreg repo with details.
