Tags for Hotspot build numbers...

In accordance with a longstanding request, I've now tagged all the 
proper changesets in Hotspot 17 with the correct build numbers.

That is, from now on, I will be tagging the tip of each build with a 
Hotspot-specific tag, to allow for easy identification as to where a 
given build was taken from.

All tags are in the form of:    hsX[.Y]-bZ

Where:
    X is the major Hotspot version number
    Y is the optional minor version number
    Z is the build number, with a leading '0' if under 10.

e.g.
        hs17-b09 is the latest

These numbers correspond to the following values found in the 
make/hotspot_version file:
    X = HS_MAJOR_VER
    Y = HS_MINOR_VER  (if /not/ 0 - if it is 0, then I'll be omitting it 
from the tag)
    Z = HS_BUILD_NUMBER



I will be going back and tagging build numbers in the main repos (and 
all subsidiary repos) starting at least at Hotspot 15.
