Description
We are unable to build FX API docs using the new JDK 9 doclet due to a javac bug as described in JDK-8151191. A workaround for that bug is to not include the built .class files on the javadoc classpath.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~kcr/8151565/webrev.00/ The fix is to use the source files rather than the class files when running javadoc as a workaround for JDK-8151191. I also needed to exclude the swt module from the docs temporarily so the javadoc run would succeed. I will file a follow-on issue to revert this fix one JDK-8151191 is fixed.
