RFR: JDK-8173180 VirtualMachine.startLocalManagementAgent() returns URI with unreliable IP address

[Harsha Wardhana B]

Hi Daniel,

The fix is applicable only to local JMX agent and the most common use 
case would be client and server running from same JVM.
It is highly unlikely that local JMX agent will be started to cater for 
out-of-jvm clients.

I don't see how introducing this fix can cause new interoperability 
problems. Can you please elaborate?
