RFR 8209416: Refactoring GetPropertyAction calls in JGSS

I think this should be an enhancement, and not a bug. Is this mainly for 
a performance improvement?

Also, this change puts more of a dependency on sun.security.action which 
I think we want to avoid, as it would be nice to eventually stop 
exporting sun.security.action so as to minimize the exports from 
java.base to the java.security.jgss module. You can double-check with 
Mandy or Alan on whether my line of thinking is correct on that.

Thanks,
Sean
