Could you have just added a develop flag to the manageable flags instead?

I had to use a `product` flag due to the following code, which should have been removed as part of [JDK-8243208](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8243208), but I was afraid to do so because I didn't have a test case. I.e., all of our diagnostic/manageable/experimental flags were `product` flags.

With this PR, now I have a test case -- I changed `DummyManageableStringFlag` to a `notproduct` flag, and removed the following code. I am re-running tiers1-4 now.

Sorry but I don't understand how a test involving one flag replaces a chunk of code that validated every flag declaration ??


When I did JDK-8243208, I wasn't sure if the VM would actually support diagnostic/manageable/experimental flags that were not `product`. So I added check_all_flag_declarations() to prevent anyone from adding such a flag "casually" without thinking about.

Now that I have added such a flag, and I believe I have tested pretty thoroughly (tiers 1-4), I think the VM indeed supports these flags. So now I feel it's safe to remove check_all_flag_declarations().
