Compiling OpenJFX 8

[Kevin Rushforth]

If you want to build the latest 8u, you should clone this repo instead 
of jfx-dev:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u-dev/rt

The tip of that repo is the current development repo for 8u202. There 
are also tags for all of the 8uNNN releases, for example, the tag 
corresponding to the just-shipped 8u191 release is 8u191-b10.
