RFR 8142927: Feed some text to STDIN in ProcessTools.executeProcess()

[Roger Riggs]

Hi Max,

It would be cleaner to create and use a PrintStream to send the bytes
to the process.  We don't want to encourage the poor practice of using 
getBytes().
Please also document that the exit status of the process is ignored.
