JDK-8196130: Eclipse configuration files need to be updated

[Nir Lisker]

So this is why I was asking about the optional stuff: 'graphics' module has
BOTH

build/resources/jsl-decora
build/resources/jsl-prism

and

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

That led me to think that when the new dependencies were added the old ones
weren't removed. Those that weren't optional (like the /resources ones,
which I removed) were easy to catch and we could have finished here. Those
that are optional are not causing trouble even when missing because they
are optional.

gradle sdk does not create the ones which are marked optional that Iv'e
surveyed, but I don't know if that's the only way they can be created. If I
compare solely with gradle sdk then I can just remove whatever is missing
on grounds that it's left over.
