This is an effort to fix a problem introduced in the fix for [JDK-8284368](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8284368), which replaced the finalizers in jdk.crypto.cryptoki with Cleaners.  However, there is a problem with the code changes. The Runnables registered with Cleaner refer to the object being registered ('this'). Meaning, the Cleaner mechanism will keep the objects reachable, preventing them from being cleaned and collected.
