<i18n dev> RFR JDK-7071819: To support Extended Grapheme Clusters in Regex

[Xueming Shen]

Hi,

Have not heard any feedback on this one so far. I'm adding
a little more to make it attractive for reviewers :-)

On top of the \N now the webrev includes the proposal to add
two more matchers, \X for unicode extended grapheme cluster
and \b{g} for the corresponding boundary.

Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7071819
Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8147531
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sherman/8147531_7071819/webrev/

Thanks!
Sherman
