6810254: Lazily instantiate the shared secret access objects

sun.misc.Java*Access objects are created at initialization time.
However, they are not always needed. They can be instantiated lazily
when needed. The fix is to ad
Hi Mandy,
Isn't this kind of change risky? With static initialization you know
that once the VM gets up and running then everything is in place. But
with lazy-initialization (and using reflection no less!) there's a
danger that when you try to initialize you're more likely to fail due to
lack

Hi Mandy,
Note that my main concern is the use of reflection. If the class
involved has not previously had it's reflection objects initialized then
getDeclaredMethod can lead to a lot of native and Java-level allocation
(I'm assuming this hasn't changed a great deal from the Java 5 code).

Thanks Alan. This is a good approach that avoids using reflection and
addresses David's concern. I was a bit aggressive to lazily instantiate
Java*Access objects as many as I can. I'll revise the fix and send out
a new webrev.
Thanks

David, Alan,
Thanks for your feedback. I revise the fix per Alan's suggestion. I
decide not to keep the fix to lazily initialize the shutdown hook only.
So java.io.Console, DeleteOnExitHook and
java.lang.ApplicationShutdownHooks are only loaded when the app uses it.
