JDK-8339104 :  
Release Note: java.util.zip.ZipError Is Deprecated for Removal - Open
Description
The use of the class java.util.zip.ZipError was removed from ZipFile/ZipFileSystem/ZipFileSystemProvider in JDK 9 via JDK-8145260 and
JDK-8037394. However, the exception class itself has been kept around since then.

Since the class has been unused by the JDK for this long, we should consider marking it deprecated for removal to allow it being cleaned up.

Also, the TestZipError test is unfortunately named, since it no longer tests that ZipError is thrown, but instead ZipException.
