`jcmd` provides great diagnostics but many commands lack a timestamp in their output.
Adding a timestamp to the output of some would add value for those debugging JVM data.
Some diagnostic commands already provide timestamps. For example `Thread.print` already prints timestamp in a "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" format.
Adding timestamps to all diagnostic `jcmd` commands with a non-throw-away STDOUT.
The exceptions are:
* `VM.uptime` - command run with `-date` argument will also print a timestamp;
* `VM.system_properties` - already lists timestamp
* `Thread.dump_to_file` - the content dumped to file already has a timestamp;
* `VM.version`
-------------
Commit messages:
- copyright change
- Thread.dump_to_file doesn't need timestamp in STDOUT
- CodeCacheTest.java and ClassHierarchyTest.java to account for added timestamp
- jcmd [PID] Compiler.perfmap has no valuable stdout. Remove timestamp from Compiler.perfmap
- 8357828: add timestamps to jcmd diagnostic commands
