<i18n dev> Review request: Splitting locale resources (FormatData) for java.time classes

[Naoto Sato]

Looks good overall. Some minor comments:

- sun/util/locale/provider/CalendarNameProviderImpl.java, line 234: 
"cldr" -> "javatime"

- sun/util/locale/provider/LocaleResources.java, line 370: Should this 
method be renamed to getJavaTime...()?

- src/share/classes/sun/util/resources/LocaleData.java, line 128: Is 
there any chance that this assertion would fail with FALLBACK adapter?
