This also includes the JDK-8219781 changes for these locales. I think
it's worth mentioning all three bug IDs in the summary text so they
appear in a keyword search.

Changes for these locales look ok to me.

This doesn't make sense to me. The in locale is present in
sun/text/resources, but the only one without JavaTimeSupplementary_*:

The file is introduced in JDK-8145136. Why not just take it from there
and update with the changes in JDK-8219781?

The test passes for this locale (as it does for nl, which is updated in
this patch) because the values are the same as for the base locale
(English). but there are other translations in that file which are
missing in 8u.

Agreed.

The problem with these changesets is they attempt to do everything in
bulk. It's a problem I've seen with such changes before. We don't want
to backport the CLDR update, but the updates to legacy locale data
should be ok.

We did used to get locale data updates with most CPUs. I haven't seen
those since we switched to the current update system, which is a little
worrying.

I guess the number of people hitting the lack of a Serbian translation
of a Japanese era name in the Latin character set was small, but it's
good to have this fixed. Thanks for looking into it.
