[11u] jtreg.SkippedException?

[Severin Gehwolf]

Hi,

During a couple of test related backports to OpenJDK 11u a recurring
issue seems to be a need to change a jdk/jdk patch due to
jtreg.SkippedException not being present in jdk-updates/jdk11u{,-dev}.

I'd propose to get it added to the JDK 11u test trees so as to make
test backports easier going forward. While this might add a patch which
is JDK 11u only, it removes the need for reviews for more test
backports going forward.

Note that JDK-8208655 introduced jtreg.SkippedException for JDK 12,
which seems too big of a patch for a full backport. I could include
SkippedException in one of my pending JDK 11u backports[1][2] or get it
added separately. I'm leaning towards a separate JDK 11u-only patch.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Severin
