Please review this PR which clarifies that the matching order of format styles 
for MessageFormat sub formats is not guaranteed by the JDK implementation. A 
corresponding CSR has also been drafted.

This is relevant when a locale provides equivalent patterns for multiple format 
factory styles. For example, a locale X could provide some equivalent date 
style "xyz" for both a MEDIUM and LONG style. Thus invoking toPattern() could 
output `date`, `date,medium`, or `date,long` depending on the order of such 
matching.
