It has been modified with the intent of consolidating all parameter checks in a common file (```src/java.base/share/classes/sun/security/util/PBEUtil.java```), that can be used both by ```SunJCE``` and ```SunPKCS11```. This change does not only serve the purpose of avoiding duplicated code but also ensuring alignment and compatibility between different implementations of the same algorithms. No changes have been made to parameter checks themselves.

In the same spirit than for the ```HmacPKCS12PBECore``` case, we decided to consolidate common code for parameters validation and default values in a single file (```src/java.base/share/classes/sun/security/util/PBEUtil.java```), that can serve both ```SunJCE``` and ```SunPKCS11``` and ensure compatibility. However, instead of a single static method at the implementation level (see ```PBEUtil::getPBAKeySpec```), we create an instance of an auxiliary class and invoke an instance method (```PBEUtil.PBES2Params::getPBEKeySpec```). The reason is to persist parameters data that has to be consistent between calls to ```PBES2Core::engineInit``` (in its multiple ...

This converts the string into bytes using "default" charset which means this test will likely fail if the default charset changed unexpectedly? Same goes for other data such as 'plainText'.
