Please review this PR and [CSR](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8314607)
which clarifies the behavior of patterns in regards to the max integer digits
in j.text.DecimalFormat.
The current specification (of `applyPattern`) states that patterns do not set
the value of max integer digits. This is incorrect, these methods/constructors
do set a value for the max integer digits. If the pattern is in scientific
notation, the max integer digits value is derived from the pattern. Otherwise,
the pattern is ignored, and the limit is set to `Integer.MAX_VALUE`.
See below,
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat();
df.applyPattern("000.000E0");
df.getMaximumIntegerDigits(); // ==> 3
df.applyPattern("000.000");
df.getMaximumIntegerDigits(); // ==> 2147483647
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("000.000");
df.getMaximumIntegerDigits(); // ==> 2147483647
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("000.000E0");
df.getMaximumIntegerDigits(); // ==> 3
Method descriptions should be fixed, and the relevant constructors need to
mention the behavior as well.
