Copy Java XML Digital Signature API Specification into java.xml.crypto javadocs

      The section "Java XML Digital Signature API Specification" [1] has been removed from the JDK 10 developer guides. However, the Javadoc API documentation for the classes TransformService [2] and XMLSignatureFactory [3] still link to a section in the XML Digital Signature API Specification, "Service Providers" [4].

      The normative sections of the "Java XML Digital Signature API Specification" should be copied into the java.xml.crypto javadocs so that the external links can be replaced/removed.

      Currently, the JDK 11 docs point back to the JDK 9 docs.
