RFR(XS): 8173163: searching for a versioned entry in a multi-release jar in hotspot is inconsistent with java code

[Jiangli Zhou]

Hi Calvin,

With the change when 'version > cur_ver', the JVM prints a warning saying "the requested JDK version is not supported in multiple version jars" but uses the highest versioned entry instead of the base entry. The warning should be removed or be made more clear to also reflect the behavior change.

Thanks,
Jiangli
