Generally: wow, very nice cleanup!

That being said, there is a potential conflict/race with a separate review to 
make sealed cases permanent (not preview.)   So, this is approved, with a 
warning to coordinate with @vicente-romero-oracle about the sealed classes 
review https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/3613

This needs to be coordinated with the work to make sealed final.
In the changes for that, this set is now empty but the code to process the set 
(lines 110-126) remains, ready for any future preview modifiers.

Also, given this code exists elsewhere, we should probably try and pull it in 
to a shared method.  That being said, Signatures is probably conceptually the 
right place for the shared method (not Utils.)

Also, whether or not we make a shared method, we should probably add an 
explanatory comment explaining why we keep an empty set around, just in case.

Thinking aloud, would this method be better in Signatures?  Maybe later...
