RFR(S) 8197453 : Add support of extra problem list

[Jonathan Gibbons]

If these new problem-list files are destined for use by jtreg, I would 
encourage adding a platform specifier on each line, after the bug 
number. If you want to mark the test as excluded on all platforms, the 
convention is to use "generic-all".
