RFR: 8023862: deprecate HTTP proxying from RMI

Hi all,

Please review the following spec change (deprecation) and change of a property 
default value.

Briefly, RMI has some machinery that will attempt to tunnel RMI requests through 
HTTP under certain circumstances. This is a maintenance burden and also causes 
customer confusion. The change here deprecates the HTTP tunneling mechanism and 
changes a property to disable HTTP tunneling by default.

See further details in the bug report.
