RFR: 8179370: Replace use of <tt>, <center> and <font> tags in java.base

[Jonathan Gibbons]

Joe,

Yes, there are occurrences here that require <code> instead of {@code}, 
because of the presence of HTML entities. It's about 50/50.

I'd prefer to stay with mechanical updates as much as possible for these 
bulk updates, as compared to manual updates, but I may be able to 
improve the sed script for this case.
