Description
Updating the JDK to Xerces 2.12.1.

Xerces 2.12.1 is a bug fix release. Most of the bug fixes were for the distribution with Schema 1.1 that are not applicable to the JDK. The few that do apply were already in the JDK. The current JDK therefore is compatible with the Xerces 2.12.1 release (without Schema 1.1). See details below.


Bugs that apply to the JDK (Xerces distribution without Schema 1.1):

    XERCESJ-1714, XERCESJ-1594, XERCESJ-1515

    The above changes were already in the JDK.


Bugs not applicable to the JDK:

    Schema 1.1 specific bug fixes: XERCESJ-1717, XERCESJ-1708, XERCESJ-1699, XERCESJ-1698, XERCESJ-1674 

    Build/html bug (html/dom not included in the JDK): XERCESJ-1707

    Test: XERCESJ-1719 (test only change)


Comments
Fix request (13u) I'd like to have this update in 13u as well. The patch applies cleanly.

jdk11 backport request I would like to have the patch in OpenJDK 11 as well (for better parity with 11.0.8_oracle). The patch applies cleanly.
