I use `jtreg` standalone (outside of `make`) a lot of times to run tests. If I understand the build changes correctly, `make images` will build the necessary jars for the virtual thread factory class (does it require `--with-jtreg` option to have been used during `configure`?). And then if I want to use this `Virtual` thread factory, I can just do:

jtreg -testThreadFactoryPath:.... -testThreadFactory:... 

Is that right?
