Code review request: 7064075 Security libraries don't build with javac -Xlint:all,-deprecation -Werror

[Alexandre Boulgakov]

This is a Netbeans warning, not generated by the compiler. The reason is 
that List.isEmpty() can be more efficient for some implementations. 
ArrayList.size() == 0 and ArrayList.isEmpty() should take the same time, 
so it doesn't matter for allResults, but keyTypeList is a List argument, 
so any implementation could be passed in. List.isEmpty() should never be 
slower than List.size() == 0 because AbstractCollection defines 
isEmpty() as size() == 0.

Even if we don't get a performance improvement, it still improves 
readability.
