RFR: JDK-8191933 Use failure handler in run-test

[Jonathan Gibbons]

One reason it is difficult to move some of this into jtreg itself is 
because some
of these handlers use recent/new APIs. That makes writing and/or 
building jtreg
that much harder. But I agree in general with the overall goal of moving 
stuff
into jtreg when it is practical to do so.
