Fix Request (OpenJDK 8u): Adding the fix request comment on Jon's behalf. Please approved for OpenJDK 8u as this fixes a number of tests which got backported from later JDK releases and still refer to the COMPAT locale provider not existing in jdk8u. Test only change so risk should be low. Reviewed by Andrew Hughes. RFR (approved): https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk8u-dev/2020-August/012573.html
