When such data is changed, most of the time build-dev (or the new build label) is involved, even though this has nothing to do with the build. While this is annoying, a worse problem is if the actual team that needs to review the patch (i.e., the team owning the module) is missed in the review.

Reviewed changes to `characterdata`, `charsetmapping`, `cldr`, `currency`, `lsrdata`, `tzdata`, and `unicodedata` with minor comment. Looks good overall.

test/jdk/java/util/Locale/LSRDataTest.java line 57:

The comment refers to the "make" folder. (line 55 as well).
