[PATCH] add JdkCompat.maxMemory() [was Re: [5.0] Monitor servlet]

[Tim Funk <fu...@joedog.org>]

Here's a patch to JdkCompat, and JdkCompat1.4

The method is called getMaxMemory() and returns -1 for jdk1.3 or less. 
Why -1? I had to pick a number. Feel free to change.

I do not have a patch yet for StatusManagerServlet. With luck, I'll have 
a patch for that(with additional functionality) in the near future.

-Tim
