The file GensrcCharsetMapping.gmk was not properly converted from the old build system.

This leads to unneccessary output, incorrect dependencies, missed chances for parallelization. It also breaks certain attempts to run static code analyzers such as Parfait.

This change introduces the new API TextFileProcessing into jdk9. It's been in the build-infra project for a while. Similar to the compile constructs, we can setup a file (or a bunch of files) which needs different kinds of text transformations. In this case, only the INCLUDE functionality is used.

This is also the first in hopefully a series of patches that will try to bring some order into the mess of generated/processed files. The following rules have been used: * Files that are almost java source files, but needs some text processing, should be named "Foo.java.template" and live in the correct place in src/classes. * Files that provides data to any gensrc action, but that are not at all java source code, should live in make/data/<descriptive dir>.
