Adds missing @throws declarations for ArithmeticException to the public
function
java.math.BigDecimal#stripTrailingZeros
as well as the private helper functions
java.math.BigDecimal#createAndStripZerosToMatchScale(long, int, long)
java.math.BigDecimal#createAndStripZerosToMatchScale(BigInteger, int, long)

stripTrailingZeros calls one of the two helper functions, both of which
can repeatedly decrease the scale by 1 until it underflows. If it does,
the call to checkScale will result in an ArithmeticException (overflow).

Please note the issue 
[8264161](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8264161) has already been 
addressed by:
#3204

@RogerRiggs The fix in #3204 remains incomplete as it does not update the 
`@throws` declarations. I could open a new bug for that, but unfortunately the 
form at https://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/start_form.do appears to be down: 
There is no server response when clicking "Submit", the request to 
https://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/submit_start.do just hangs forever.

There is in fact some system maintenance which should be completed this 
morning, Pacific Time. After that a new issue for this should be filed as we 
cannot reuse issue IDs.

Thanks.
