8379344: Compact the Unicode/CLDR version tables

[naotoj]

Minor Javadoc fix to java.lang.Character and java.util.spi.LocaleServiceProvider, which list supported Unicode/CLDR versions. Since the tables grow with each JDK release, older releases should be coalesced.

The new tables look great. I think the JBS issue should be updated to say that the five-most recent releases are shown, rather than the LTS releases.

I think the JBS issue should be updated to say that the five-most recent releases are shown, rather than the LTS releases.

Thanks. I forgot to update the JBS entry, as picking LTSes does not seem to be appropriate from the Java SE spec standpoint.

I recommend you add a HTML comment that the non-collapsable table should show 5 entries. Otherwise the rule for hiding entries is confusing and the list may still explode over time.
