Add DES/3DES/MD5 to jdk.security.legacyAlgorithms

Summary

Add the DES, DESede and MD5 algorithms to "jdk.security.legacyAlgorithms" security property in the java.security property file. Change keytool to emit warnings when one of these weak algorithms is used.

Problem

DES, DESede and MD5 are weak algorithms. keytool does not emit warnings when one of these algorithms is used for its commands associated with secret key entries in the keystore.

Solution

Update "jdk.security.legacyAlgorithms" security property to include DES, DESede and MD5. Change keytool to perform legacy algorithm constraint checking for its commands related to secret key entries. This enables keytool to generate warnings when it uses a weak secret key based algorithm or PBE algorithm.
