RFR: (8031737) CHECK_NULL and CHECK_EXCEPTION macros cleanup

[Phil Race]

Roger,

Why not JDK 8u ? I've got a lot of changes  that utilise these that will
backport cleanly to JDK 8u only if 8u includes these macros. And since
the changes are all over the place I don't fancy copy/pasting them
everywhere. I suspect I am not the only one who would like these in 8u ..

-phil.
