ShenandoahPacing was removed in this release (26). Rather than have the JVM refuse to start if this option is given, it should give a warning that the option is removed and is ignored and will reject the option in JDK27.

Testing:

[0] % ./build/linux-x86_64-server-release/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UseShenandoahGC -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+ShenandoahPacing --version
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Ignoring option ShenandoahPacing; support was removed in 26.0
