NMT shutdown functionality is a remnant of its first implementation, which could consume excessive amount of memory, therefore, it needed capability to shut it self down to ensure health of JVM. This is no longer a case for current implementation.

After JDK-8277946, there is no longer a use, so it can be removed.

Test:
- [x] hotspot_nmt
- [x] tier1 with NMT on
