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

[Neil Richards]

Based on Alan Bateman's feedback for my fix for a similar problem seen
in java.util.Hashtable
(http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2011-January/005601.html),
I've revised the changeset once again to use diamond operators in the
testcases, and to their main methods throw Exceptions directly (rather
than catching them in the cause of a RuntimeException).

Also based on Dalibor Topic's suggestion
(http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2010-December/005533.html),
I'm attaching the updated changeset as a webrev zip file, for ease of
review.

Please review this modified changeset, and let me know if anything
further is required for its acceptance.

Cheers,
Neil
