RFR: 8055677 java/lang/instrument/RedefineBigClass.sh RetransformBigClass.sh start failing after JDK-8055012

[Staffan Larsen]

This failure happens because the test look for the string “Exception” in the output of the program to signal a failure. With the improved version of NMT, the output from NMT sometimes includes this string in a stack trace. The solution I’ve implemented is to redirect the NMT output to a file instead of having it on stdout.
