JVM/TI code review request (XS and M) (7182152)

Greetings,

The JPDA stack testing finished with no new regressions on HSX-23.6,
HSX-24 or HSX-25. The HSX-24 version of the fix has been pushed.

I've updated the HSX-25 version of the fix due to Karen's comments
about the MinimalVM configuration in Code Review Round 1. In this
latest round for HSX-25, I've made use of the INCLUDE_JVMTI define
to limit the exposure of new tracing code to configurations that
include JVM/TI support. The MinimalVM does not support JVM/TI so
none of the new code needs to be included there. While I was at it,
I also excluded some other JVM/TI RedefineClasses() support code
from the MinimalVM config that I hadn't previously touched.

In short, none of the functionality has been changed in this round.
Just the way it is built or not built has been changed.

Here is the URL for the latest HSX-25 webrev:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/2-hsx25/

Thanks, in advance, for more comments, suggestions or questions.

Dan
