[8u-dev] Request for approval: 8145974: XMLStreamWriter produces invalid XML for surrogate pairs on OutputStreamWriter

[Aleks Efimov]

Hello,

Please, approve backport of JDK-8145974 to JDK8u-dev. The source part of 
the fix applies cleanly to jaxp repo.
Regression test was added into jdk/test instead of jaxp/test and jtreg 
run tag was added:
+ * @run testng/othervm SurrogatesTest

Build with backported changes was tested with JPRT and JCK tests: no 
failures were observed.
