Description

hadoop-client leaks out JDK tools jar as dependency.

JDK tools jar is defined as a system dependency for hadoop-annotation/jdiff/javadocs purposes, if not done javadoc generation fails.

The problem is that in the way it is defined now, this dependency ends up leaking to hadoop-client and downstream projects that depend on hadoop-client may end up including/bundling JDK tools JAR.
