7025631: Remove the modules build support from jdk 7

Webrev at:

JDK modularity is targetted for JDK 8 [1]. The modules build is supported in the jigsaw repository [2] and updated to work with the module system. The modules build support added in JDK 7 repository should be removed.

The change touches many files but it's mainly 1-line removal (removing the MODULE variable). It also removes the class analyzer tool. Calls to the install-module-* function can simply be removed since it copies the file to the modules temporary directory that is used only for the modules build. Calls to the install-non-module-file function is replaced with install-file since the install-non-module-file function is equivalent to the install-file function exception that it does not copy the file to the modules temporary directory.

I verified this change by building the JDK with SKIP_BOOT_CYCLE=false and also run the default set of jprt tests on all platforms. I also compare the files in j2sdk-image with those in a promoted JDK 7 build (minus the files created from the deploy workspace).
