RFR: 8049864: TestParallelHeapSizeFlags fails with unexpected heap size

Hi all,

this change was discussed and approved back in June [0], "RFR: 8027915: 
TestParallelHeapSizeFlags fails with unexpected heap size on sparcv9",
but had to be backed out because it exposed JDK-8049536 [1]. Now that 
JDK-8049536 has been fixed [2], it is time to re-apply the patch that 
fixes the test failure.

Since the patch already has been pushed once, and each commit requires a 
unique bug id, the bug had to be cloned in JBS. The old bug id is 
JDK-8027915 [3] and the new bug id is JDK-8049864 [4].

The already approved patch applied cleanly except that the JTreg @ignore 
directive in the test used the new bug number, JDK-8049864. So instead 
of just pushing the patch again (with the new bug id), I figured it was 
best to give everyone a heads up first.

Thanks,
Erik
