Can I please get a review of this enhancement which introduces the ability to configure test actions which are disallowed to be used in test definitions? This addresses https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/CODETOOLS-7904074.

This introduces a new `disallowedActions` test configuration, which can be set in `TEST.ROOT` or `TEST.properties` file(s) to allow projects to configure test actions that aren't allowed for those projects. For example, the JDK project could be configured with:


disallowedActions=applet

so that any new (or existing) test definitions with a `@run applet` will cause those tests to error.

A new self test has been introduced which verifies this feature. I have also run manual tests to make sure that this feature can be used in the JDK.
