JDK-8211343: nsk_jvmti_parseoptions should handle multiple suboptions

During some earlier jvmti test debugging, I noticed that it was not
possible to
add a quick argument to the current tests and rerun the test. e.g.
expand "waittime=5" to
"waittime=5,verbose". I tracked down the options parsing in
jvmti_tools.cpp and saw some
comments that only a single option could be parsed.
So I filed this bug to revisit the issue for the next release:
Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211343
I think the option parsing should be ripped out and redone,
but for now I think a simple tweak to use strsep(), might go a long way
to solving the multiple option support. I just started testing,
but wanted to know if anyone else has been down this rabbit hole
before.
