Thanks for review~
As for the isProviderInfo() name, since I reverted the code for its impl
to pre-7092821, I changed it back to the old name as you noticed. Sean
mentioned that he also wants to take a look at this updated webrev, so I
will wait for him to do that...

Updated the regression test with removal test for provider using legacy registrations as well. Although removal is supported, this is still not bullet proof as things may not work as expected if a provider registered their impl in both ways, i.e. legacy String pair and Service, and then remove/replace some entries later. Please comment if you really need this scenario to be supported. Although not explicitly documented, I think the intention is to use one or the other, never both.

Alright, I guess it costs for covering all aspect. But one extra benefit of this is that it should be easy to handle the future JDK property such as "jdk.securerandom.disabledAlgorithms" if it were to be added.
