It also update the default value of the `java.security.manager` system property to "disallow", and necessary test change following this update.

If you are only interested in a portion of the 3rd commit and would like to review it as a separate file, please comment here and I'll generate an individual webrev.

you might find it easier if you put the Permissions parameter on a new line. There are several places in AccessController where the same thing happens.
