Two other tests are updated because they were added after JDK-8267184 and do not have `-Djava.security.manager=allow` on its `@run` line even it they need to install one at runtime.
Looks good Max.
One minor suggestion below
src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/SecurityManager.java line 128:
> 126: * <th scope="row">null</th>

Not sure "Always" is needed, could just be "Throws UOE"
