JDK-8163921 - HttpURLConnection default Accept header is malformed according to HTTP/1.1 RFC
Description
"JDK-8163921: HttpURLConnection default Accept header is malformed according to HTTP/1.1 RFC" wants to fix syntax errors the header specification. But it also changes the headers accepted.  This seems to be a problem for some installations, see JDK-8337684. 

While JDK-8337684 proposes to revert JDK-8163921 from 17 introducing the wrong syntax again, this change just fixes the syntax errors.  This is probably better for an established release as 17 than the implementation of 8163921.

This was proposed by Daniel Jelinski, see also his first approach to fix 8163921: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/7181/commits/be017d19303b3f0989c7ae92ceda5c90ea4583ba

[jdk11u-fix-request] Approval Request from Dan Lutker Low risk backport to fix a regression. The updated test coverage should be sufficient and Oracle will be including this fix in upcoming 11.0.26 release as well.

Fix request [17u] I would like to partially revert 8163921 because 8337684 reports a problem with this. While 8163921 is described as a fix, it also implements a change of behavior, which probably should not have been backported as-is. So this change now tries to only bring the fix to 17. As this is a (slightly) new change, I propose to give it time to be tested and thus target the January release. Test and SAP nightly tests passed.
