Bug#891259: libecj-java: Update to new upstream version

[Emmanuel Bourg]

FTR I've upgraded ecj to the version 3.12.3 (upstream tag 4.6.3), which
is the version currently used by Tomcat 8.5. I haven't been able to
upgrade to the latest 3.13.x release (tag 4.7.x) because it requires the
org.eclipse.core.runtime classes from the org.eclipse.equinox.common
bundle [1] (these classes are in the eclipse package but I don't want to
add more dependencies on it since we intend to remove it).
