[classlib/VMI] o.a.h.boot.class.path property
I think we need to clarify VMI contract on "o.a.h.boot.class.path" property.
Currently luni natives set this property to default bcp during
JNI_OnLoad, accordingly to content of
"%java.home%/lib/boot/bootclasspath.properties" file.
Should the VM sync value of this property back with added path to
kernel classes and/or user-provided cmd-line entries?
>From what I observe, j9 does this and DRLVM does not. Classlib uses
this property to lookup resources like i18n, and for (re)launching
tools - but I may be missing smth.
Opinios?

I thought about doing this on saturday when committing the code for
JIRA 1626, but it seemed somewhat odd for me to have the VM do that.
I thought maybe we would have a second property that was one that
represented the "complete" boot class path so there would be an
understanding between classlib and vm that once that one is set,
that's it.
I don't feel strongly there.
