Please review this change to java.util.Timer, replacing the use of deprecated finalization-based cleanup with use of java.lang.ref.Cleaner.
In addition, Timer.cancel now cancels any later execution of the the no longer relevant cleanup.
Testing:
mach5 tier1
New AutoStop test verifies the specified cleanup behavior.
(There are existing tests involving Timer.cancel.)
