JDK-8195974: Replace use of java.util.logging in javafx with System logger

[Nir Lisker]

Thanks Murali, Iv'e also commented out isDebug() (though maybe it can be
completely removed, only that the commented out code relies on it).

Kevin, after this change, HelloService in the packager is the only one
requiring file handling. What is the future of the packager now? Is it
worth supplying an alternative for these classes?
