The fix also simplifies things by including test TestHeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryErrorInMetaspace.java with this test.  (Hopefully, this won't increase the likelihood of timeouts.)

Thanks Thomas and Coleen for the reviews!  I'll keep the Metaspace timeout as is for now to reduce the chances of that test timing out.
