Hi,

JDK-8154231 added methods to simplify access to system properties from 
internal code, but after some discussion it's been decided to rename 
these methods and document them to make it abundantly clear that they 
are performing a privileged action and that care needs to be taken to 
tread the input and output accordingly:

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/8155775/webrev.01
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8155775

Thanks!
