[JDK-8333117](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8333117) removed support for non-local debuggees, so now only local debuggees are supported. However, there are now a lot of references to the "local" debuggee mode which are not necessary because "local" is implied. These references are in comments and API names and should be removed.

Also, after [JDK-8333117](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8333117), DebugeeProcess no longer needs to be considered abstract. It has no abstract methods.

Tested nsk/jdi, nsk/jdb, and nsk/jdwp locally. Will run tier5 CI to get better coverage.

 - Get rid of references to "local" debuggee since it is alays local.
