Hi All

This is a request to backport 2 jdk8 fixes into jdk7u.

8011867: Accept unknown PKCS #9 attributes

    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8011867

8011745: Unknown CertificateChoices

    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8011745

Both bugs are about parsing PKI-related data. Previously unsupported 
data types are now either supported or ignored without throw an exception.

The fix is already included in jdk8 as:

    http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/0ab22e58d151
    http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/1c3fff140324

Both reviewed by vinnie. The patch for jdk7uXXX is identical to the one 
in jdk8.

Thanks
Weijun
