RFR[9] JDK-8170523: Some PKCS11 test cases are ignored with security manager

[Sean Mullan]

Hi John,

I don't think we should modify the test to disable a SecurityManager and 
then reenable it to avoid a security check -- that seems like a pattern 
we should avoid. Have you tried to reorganize this code so that this 
setup is done before you initially enable the SecurityManager?

Thanks,
Sean
