IV36796: IBM USE ORACLE, RATHER THAN APACHE HARMONY, JAVA.UTIL.* PACKAGES

Local fix

Problem summary

• The SDK now uses the Oracle implementation of the java.util.*
  package, including all classes within the package. Earlier
  releases of the SDK used customized versions of the Apache
  Harmony class libraries. This change establishes a common
  implementation point for the java.util.* package, enabling
  consistent performance and behavior characteristics across Java
  implementations. Existing applications are expected to function
  without problems. However, if testing exposes any issues,
  contact your IBM service representative.
