RFR: JDK-8190187: C++ code calling JNI_CreateJavaVM can be killed by Java

[Adam Farley8]

Hi All, 

Here is the code to resolve JDK-8190187:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mhorie/8190187/hg_diff.txt

Could a committer please take the fix and: 

1) Complete the CSR process for the new JNI Return code. 
2) Commit the changes that contain the Return code.

And, optionally, 3) Perform 1 and 2 for the jdwp agent changes as well, so 
it can use this new functionality.

Let me know if you need any help. :)

Best Regards

Adam Farley
