RFR JDK-8218702: [TESTBUG] com/sun/jdi/RepStep.java does not report debuggee errors

[Alex Menkov]

Hi Chris,

Most of JDI tests use helper classes (VMConnection or Debuggee) which 
redirect debuggee outputs.
LaunchingConnector is used only by RepStep, SunBootClassPathEmptyTest 
and DebugUsingCustomConnector and only RepStep really performs debugging 
(SingleStepping).
