8237219: Disabling the native SunEC implementation

When the native impl is disabled, and an unsupported curve is used in key pair generation, ECDSA, or ECDH, when will the exception be thrown? Is it at the same place when native impl is enabled? I mean, do we need some sort of java isSupported()?
SecurityTools.java:
If native is disabled, will many tests fail? Is it possible to modify the tests? This is a helper method used by many tests and I'd rather it uses the default setting.
Thanks,
Max

With the recent verification changes in JDK-8237218, SunJCE is long dependent on the native code for verifying the constant-time curves. This disabling can be undone with setting a system property, jdk.sunec.disableNative. I'm doing a simultaneous review as changes for one will likely affect the other.
