JDK 10 forests open for bug fixes and small enhancements

[Jesper Wilhelmsson]

I'm not the decision maker here, but this is what was said in a meeting:

The jdk10/jdk10 forest will sync with jdk9/dev. New changes in jdk9/dev is 
pulled into 10 this way. The process is planned to be made automatic using Mach 
5 but initially Lana and I will be doing the integrations.

jdk10/hs is a child of jdk10/dev. For changes to go from jdk9/hs to jdk10/hs 
they will have to go through 9/dev and 10/dev. This is assumed to take a while. 
Right now we only integrate 9/hs to 9/dev once a week, and at most we can crank 
that up to twice a week due to the rigorous testing requirements. Once we get 
Mach 5 support for HotSpot testing (running all the required VM tests) we can 
start integrating more often.
