> A lot of our tests use a multi-step recipe to spawn and wait for a process. Here's an example
>
> ProcessBuilder pb = ProcessTools.createTestJavaProcessBuilder(
> "-XX:-UseTLAB",
> "-XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions",
> "-XX:+VerifyDuringStartup",
> "-Xlog:gc+verify=debug",
> "-version");
> OutputAnalyzer output = new OutputAnalyzer(pb.start());
> ... do something with output and wait for the process to complete ...

> These are the steps involved:
>
> 1) Create a `ProcessBuilder`
> 2) Call `ProcessBuilder::start`
> 3) Create an `OutputAnalyzer`
> 4) Perform an operation that finally waits for the process to, at least partially, complete (OutputAnalyzer::getOutput, OutputAnalyzer::shouldHaveExitValue(), and more).
>
> Almost all our tests could be converted to use a single call to `ProcessTools.executeTestJava` (or `executeLimitedTestJava`), which spawns the process, makes sure that it has fully completed, and then returns a filled-in OutputAnalyzer to the caller. The above example would become:

> "-XX:-UseTLAB",
> "-XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions",
> "-XX:+VerifyDuringStartup",
> "-Xlog:gc+verify=debug",
> "-version");

> I propose that we make this change in the GC tests, to make our code simpler and hopefully easier to read.

> Note: There's a few changes to the throws statements because some ProcessTools APIs throws IOException while others throw Exception.

> Testing: I've done testing on a similar set of changes, but I'm going to run the appropriate, final tests while this is being considered/reviewed.
