RFR (M) CR 8023234: StampedLock serializes readers on writer unlock

[Martin Buchholz]

Thanks.  Looks good.

Style suggestions for the test:

+            while(!isDone && !isInterrupted()) {
SPC after keywords.

I think it's more readable to use CountDownLatch instead of CyclicBarrier
for writerHasLock, because of asymmetric API.
Doers call countDown(), waiters call await().
