RFR(XS): 8147844: new method j.l.Thread.onSpinWait() (was j.l.Runtime)

[Ivan Krylov]

I have added a little example that hopefully explains for the new method 
is for

JavaDoc: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ikrylov/8147844.doc.00/java/lang/Thread.html#onSpinWait--
I replaced the webrev in place: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ikrylov/8147844.jdk.03

Thanks,

Ivan
