JDK-8196130: Eclipse configuration files need to be updated

[Kevin Rushforth]

One more thing about the specific path you mentioned as not being there.

<classpathentry kind="src" exported="true" 
path="build/resources/jsl-decora"/>
<classpathentry kind="src" exported="true" 
path="build/resources/jsl-prism"/>

These are still being created by 'gradle sdk', but the path is wrong 
(the files moved in JDK 9) and should be:

build/gensrc/jsl-decora
build/gensrc/jsl-prism

You might want to take that into account.
