Code review request, 7188658 Add possibility to disable client initiated renegotiation

[Brad Wetmore]

Sorry for the delay.

Two comments about the property name.

I don't see the jdk.tls *System* Property prefix used anywhere else, 
except as a *Security* properties:

     jdk.tls.rejectClientInitializedRenego

Otherwise, I think we should stick to one of the current namespace.

     jsse.               (my preference since this is expected across
                          other JDKs)
     sun.security.ssl.

Regarding rejectClientInitializedRenego, I think the word "Initiated" 
more succinctly captures the intent of this property, rather than 
"Initalized."  And as long as the word "Renegotiation" is, it should 
probably be spelled out completely.  AFAIK, we rarely abbreviate 
external names like this.

Same "initiated" comment about the variable name in your codereview, but 
I don't care much about Renogo.

ServerHandshaker.java
=====================
283:  My initial thought was a no_renegotiation(100) warning, but that 
allows the client to decide what to do, rather than the server terminating.

This TLS logic decision is not straightforward, so this needs commenting.

379:  since you're making changes here.

   response->respond

Since you already have CCC approval and are ready to putback, I would 
suggest putting back now, and let's file another CCC to change the name. 
  That should be a no-brainer.

Thanks!

Brad
