RFR JDK-8058204 stream tests timeout, intermittently but more likely to happen after JDK-8056248

[Paul Sandoz]

Hi,

Please see below for a patch to disable concurrent execution of the stream tests by jtreg.

Due to recent f/j changes some stream tests are now timing out. This is because the tests are running concurrently and parallel stream execution in one process is competing for resources with parallel stream execution in another process. This was actually always the case, but the recent f/j changes appear to be more sensitive to OS scheduling effects on some platforms and there is not much we can do about that at the moment.

This is unlikely to increase the overall execution time of the JDK tests by much.

Paul.
