JDK-8139654 - [docs] LiveConnect reference links are broken in netscape.javascript.JSObject doc
Description
The javadoc of the class netscape.javascript.JSObject contains the following 2 broken links:

Data Type Conversions ( https://jdk6.dev.java.net/plugin2/liveconnect/#JAVA_JS_CONVERSIONS )
new LiveConnect Specification ( https://jdk6.dev.java.net/plugin2/liveconnect/ )

From issue 21299 I see the links should use host "jdk6.java.net" instead of "jdk6.dev.java.net". However, ideally I think these documents should be either included in JavaFX, or hosted somewhere under "docs.oracle.com".
Comments
This is superseded by JDK-8132743 which will unify the two separate copies of the netscape.javascript.JSObject package.

Targeting for 9 but may pull it into 8u60.
