Java Deployment Toolkit needs to support JDK 8 and the Firefox ESR

      Description

        With the implementation of DeployJava.js function isNoPluginWebBrowser() where it returns "true" for FF on all platforms there is no way to load applets using DT on FF with JDK 8.

        The implementation is correct for JDK 9, but for JDK 8 this behavior is a regression relative to the Firefox ESR and applet support.
