This is an update to the Request For Review of the implementation of the 
Java Packager Tool (jpackager) as described in JEP 343: Packaging Tool 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200758>

This refresh renames the packages used to jdk.jpackager and 
jdk.jpackager.runtime, removes the JNLPConverter demo, adds an initial 
set of automated tests, and contains fixes to the following issues:

JDK-8213324 jpackager deletes existing app directory without warning
JDK-8213166 jpackager --argument arg is broken
JDK-8213163 --app-image arg does not work creating exe installers
JDK-8212089 Prepare packager for localization
JDK-8212537 Create method and class description comments for main 
functionality
JDK-8213332 Create minimal automated tests for jpackager
JDK-8213333 Fix issues found in jpackager with automated tests
JDK-8213394 Stop using Log.info() except for expected output.
JDK-8213345 Secondary Launchers broken on mac.
JDK-8213156 rename packages for jpackager
JDK-8213244 Fix all warnings in jpackager java code
JDK-8212143 Remove native code that supports UserJvmOptionsService
JDK-8213162 Association description in Inno Setup cannot contain double 
quotes

The following additional issues are targeted to be address in the next 
few weeks:
JDK-8212936     Makefile and other improvements for jpackager
JDK-8212164     resolve jre.list and jre.module.list
JDK-8213392     Enhance --help and --version
JDK-8208652     File name is not passed to main() via file association 
on OS X
JDK-8212538     Determine standard way to determine if a Modular jar
JDK-8213558     Create more unit tests
