Unfortunately this breaks on a cgroups v2 system as `--memory-swappiness` is not supported there. I'd prefer if this wouldn't piggy back on the existing test, but actually assert that swap is properly reported as the same as the memory limit if `--memory-swappiness=0`. Also, this test only verifies the Java (core-libs) change, not the hotspot change. That would have to be done via some `TestMisc` variant which uses `print_container_info()`.
