Please review this trivial test-only patch in support of running tests on JEP 493 enabled builds. Both tests use the `ToolProvider` API so as to run `jlink` in-process of the test JVM which includes module patches (as in - uses `--patch-module`) which is not supported for JEP 493 enabled JDKs. The proposed fix is to run those two tests in `/othervm` so as to no longer see the module patch of the test JDK.

Testing:
- [ ] GHA
- [x] Affected tests which fail prior the patch and pass after with a JEP 493 enabled JDK. Also tested on a JDK that includes `jmods` folder.

Thoughts?
