This is a bug fix related to invalid curves in the SunEC provider.
During ECKeyPairGenerator.initialize(), the provider only checks whether
the curve is known, but it doesn't check whether the curve is actually
supported by the native code. So the call to generateKeyPair() can fail
in the native code and throw a ProviderException. This change adds a new
native method to check whether the curve is supported. This method is
called by initialize(), which will set the state to uninitialized and
throw the expected exception when the curve is not supported.
