8163162: The separation between system loggers and application loggers should take the extension loader in consideration. Summary: DefaultLoggerFinder.isSystem is changed to return 'true' for classes loaded from the platform loader and its ancestors. This means that classes loaded by the platform loader will get exactly the same kind of loggers than classes loaded by the boot (null) loader. Reviewed-by: rriggs, mchung

README:
  This file should be located at the top of the OpenJDK Mercurial root
  repository. A full OpenJDK repository set (forest) should also include
  the following 7 nested repositories:
    "jdk", "hotspot", "langtools", "nashorn", "corba", "jaxws"  and "jaxp".

  The root repository can be obtained with something like:
    hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9 openjdk9

  You can run the get_source.sh script located in the root repository to get
  the other needed repositories:
    cd openjdk9 && sh ./get_source.sh

  People unfamiliar with Mercurial should read the first few chapters of
  the Mercurial book: http://hgbook.red-bean.com/read/

  See http://openjdk.java.net/ for more information about OpenJDK.

Simple Build Instructions:

  0. Get the necessary system software/packages installed on your system, see
     http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html

  1. If you don't have a jdk8 or newer jdk, download and install it from
     http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
     Add the /bin directory of this installation to your PATH environment
     variable.

  2. Configure the build:
       bash ./configure

  3. Build the OpenJDK:
       make all
     The resulting JDK image should be found in build/*/images/jdk

where make is GNU make 3.81 or newer, /usr/bin/make on Linux usually
is 3.81 or newer. Note that on Solaris, GNU make is called "gmake".
