Sunbug 6934356: Vector.writeObject() synchronization risks serialization deadlock

[Neil Richards]

Hi Peter,
Using putFields/writeFields was the only way I found of properly
addressing the problem in Vector serialization.

The fix has not impacted performance significantly in places where it
has been used in anger.
(I'd naturally be interested in any further improvements in this area.)

All, please find attached an updated webrev zip file, which makes
'data' final (thanks for the suggestion, Peter), and also sorts out
the licensing text.

Thanks,
Neil
