RFR: JDK-8159544: Remove deprecated classes in com.sun.security.auth.**

For the langtools change, I think we shouldn't remove the entries from 
the include.list. This list defines which packages/classes should and 
should not be available when compiling for previous versions of the 
platform using --release. The removed entries are exclude entries, so if 
removed, it would mean the classes should be available when compiling 
for previous platform versions, which is not the intent, I think.

Maybe adding a comment (or a JBS entry) that these should be cleaned up 
when --release is no longer supporting 9?

Thanks,
     Jan
