This is an update to the "test sets" used by the build+test system used in Oracle (and so not interesting for OpenJDK). It is basically a refresh of the testsets so that it is simple to select a default, core, svc, pit or all tests when submitting a job. I have already discussed this update with a number of people so I don't require additional reviews (but additional reviewers are always welcome).
As part of the change I have updated the jdk/test make file to recognize core_* and svc_* targets. This allows test groups (defined in TEST.groups) to be selected when using the test make target, eg: "make test TESTS=svc_tools" to run the tests for the serviceability tools.
