RFR: 8341261: Tests assume UnlockExperimentalVMOptions is disabled by default

`-UnlockExperimentalVMOptions` isn't necessarily the default: a distro may enable it in order to default-enable other features like JVMCI/Graal.

I'm not entirely satisfied by adding a `@require` that only applies to a subset of the checks in a test class.  In `VMOptionWarning`, the experimental flag only applies to the first of the three scenarios it checks.  But I suspect this is a general problem with `@require`, and I'd be happy to hear suggestions on how to avoid disabling too much.
