There are 2 commits in this PR and only of them is necessary for addressing this issue. The other one is a general cleanup of the test. I am willing to revert the general cleanup commit from this test if others feel that it shouldn't be done in this PR.

That should be OK because the jtreg test infrastructure will clean them up from the scratch directory after the completion of the test run (if the test succeeds). There are other ways to address this race condition and continue to delete these files (for example, co-ordinating between the test and the test specific `FileServerHandler`), but to me it didn't seem worthwhile doing that.

I'm pretty sure that we should be able to trigger this intermittent test failure in that test too if I reorder the `test()` calls in that test to have a fixed length test be the last one to execute (i.e. `test (true, ...)` instead of the current `test(false, ...)`).

test/jdk/com/sun/net/httpserver/Test12.java line 66:

> 64:         Path smallFilePath = createTempFileOfSize(TEMP_FILE_PREFIX, null, 23);

I would not use try-with-resources here: I don't think we should close the executor before closing the servers.
