> This PR corrects _test/jdk/java/util/Locale/LocaleEnhanceTest.java_, which has two test cases under `testBuilderSetLanguageTag()` which accidentally pass. One checks that Locale.setLanguageTag(String) throws ILE for duplicate extensions and the other for duplicate U-extension keys. The test cases are updated to actually test the provided code. When the test cases are fixed, they now fail.

> Fixing the behavior to match the expectation of those test cases is consistent with the specification.

> From `Locale.forLanguageTag(String)`,

>>
>> * <p>If the specified language tag contains any ill-formed subtags,
>> * the first such subtag and all following subtags are ignored. Compare
>> * to {@link Locale.Builder#setLanguageTag(String)} which throws an exception
>> * in this case.

> and the RFC specification

>> Each singleton subtag MUST appear at most one time in each tag
>> (other than as a private use subtag). That is, singleton subtags
>> MUST NOT be repeated. For example, the tag "en-a-bbb-a-ccc" is
>> invalid because the subtag 'a' appears twice.
>
> Since duplicate extensions (and Unicode keys/attributes) are invalid, throwing `IllformedLocaleException` in (the strict) `Locale.Builder` and ignoring in (the lenient) `Locale.forLanguageTag` for such tags would be appropriate. This PR updates the implementation as such.
