[arch-general] OpenJFX package out-of-date

Hello,

The extra/java-openjfx package has been flagged out-of-date since
2016-09-13 and is stuck at verison 8u76-b03. This can result in
runtime warnings for some JavaFX applications whose FXML was created
specifying a newer API version, potentially causing confusion for
users because `java -version` would return the newest version
(1.8.0_121).

The following patch (created using `svn diff`) of the PKGBUILD should
bring it up to match the latest version of extra/jdk8-openjdk. No
changes should be necessary for the gradle.properties file.

Regards,
Kyle
