JDK-8151038 - Update javadoc tool version to 1.8.0_60 for generating JavaFX documentation
Description
Table's field width in "Use" page(package-use.html ) which is generated by 
javadoc command with '-use' option is unbalanced.
As the result, the field for "Package" is too wide and the field for 
"Description" is too narrow then the readability is very bad.
Comments
In addition to use pages (package-use and class-use), this issues also appears in constant-values pages. The fix for this is updating the stylesheet by removing "width:100%;" for styles that include ".useSummary td, .constantsSummary td" and adding ".useSummary td.colFirst, .useSummary th.colFirst," to the styles that describe the other summary types.
