The interface is named [VirtualThreadSchedulerMXBean](https://download.java.net/java/early_access/loom/docs/api/jdk.management/jdk/management/VirtualThreadSchedulerMXBean.html) and allows JMX based tooling monitor/manage the scheduler's target parallelism and monitor thread counts.

This is changed from using deep reflection to using the MXBean to access the target parallelism, which requires changes to the `@modules` tag tests in a number of tests (some tests no longer need to open java.base/java.lang).

Updates look good to me.
