RFR(S): JDK-8044364: runtime/RedefineFinalizer test fails on windows

[Christian Tornqvist]

Hi Dmitry,

I've got an alternative change for fixing the test, based on some redefine class test code I wrote last year (but never pushed). 

See the webrev at:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ctornqvi/webrev/redef_fin/webrev/

This adds a general library to easily support writing tests that is using redefine classes along with a POC test for testing the RedefineClassHelper.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi Everyone,

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dsamersoff/JDK-8044364/webrev.01/

I rewrote test launcher in java.

Compilation left up to JTREG. So the test compiles with tools.jar from COMPILEJAVA but run with tools.jar from TESTJAVA - the same way as all other similar tests.
