Thread.suspend/resume (and the corresponding methods in ThreadGroup)
have been deprecated since 1.2 (1998). I haven't see anything use these
methods in many years. Would anyone care if their deprecation is changed
to forRemoval=true with a view to really removing them in the future?
Just to clear, I'm only asking about the Thread/ThreadGroups APIs, we
have to keep suspend/resume support in the debugger and tool APIs.
