jmx-dev 8214545: sun/management/jmxremote/bootstrap tests hang in revokeall.exe on Windows

[Daniil Titov]

Hi Alan,

I think it makes sense to put the work for replacing revokeall.exe utility with a Java code in a separate issue since the current issue is a quite urgent. 

I created a new issue for that https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8224255

Thanks!

    Have you looked at replacing the tool with code that uses the 
    java.nio.file API? You can edit ACLs with that API.
