RFR: 8044235: src.zip should include all sources

Hi,

Webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~omajid/webrevs/8044235-src-zip-include-all/00/

The src.zip file produced in an OpenJDK build contains the code for a
subset of the Java class library. Developers who wish to debug their
program and step into the source of a class that's part of the Java
class library are often disappointed when they find that their IDE can
not do that because src.zip does not include the source for the class.

The webrev basically stops the filtering and includes all sources in
src.zip.

I noticed a glitch unrelated to the patch: somehow the src.zip ends up
containing the source for launcher, which is in C, too. But this happens
without the patch too, so it's not a regression.

Thanks,
Omair
