This looks better but I think we need to find better names for the conf files. 
Prefixing them with "module-sets" looks really strange.
JRE_TOOL_MODULES in module-sets-classloaders.conf might also need to be 
re-examined because it is not used to generate ModuleLoaderMap. Instead it was 
defined in Modules.gmk for the legacy-jre-image build target.
