[modules-dev] Review request for 6578988

[Dave Bristor]

Hi folks,

This fix for
     (repo) Implement Repository.shutdownOnExit

builds on top of my previous request (attached); it has build atop that 
because the changes here for shutdownOnExit() rely on the changes to 
shutdown() in the prior request.

This is a *lot* shorter than my previous request.  It includes some javadoc 
fixes in JamUtils.

You'll see in the change that when shutdownOnExit is invoked with false, that 
any previously-created shutdownThread is made available to GC.  I didn't see 
any reason to retain the reference if the likelihood is that it won't be used. 
  It might be better to keep it once created.  Space v. time!

I submitted a JPRT run that has changes for this fix plus the others.

Thanks!
