RFR: Changes to disable and/or remove Solaris 32-bit from JDK8

[Staffan Larsen]

This is a welcome change. I've looked at the serviceability test and the changes look good except:

test/demo/jvmti/DemoRun.java
test/sun/tools/jhat/HatRun.java
  - Looks like there are still some -d64 remnants that I wasn't expecting.

Thanks,
/Staffan

I don't think you need the changes at L42-48, instead you can just "hg rm" the 32-bit libraries that are in test/java/nio/channels/spi/SelectorProvider/inheritedChannel/lib.
