Open code review for 8061999 Enhance VM option parsing to allow options to be specified

[Dmitry Dmitriev]

Hello David,

I think that it look like same limitations which was applied to the 
options in environment variables before JDK-8074895 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8074895> fix. I think Ron can 
add more information about that.

Thanks,
Dmitry
