Description
AutoGCSelectPauseMillis also should be deprecated with UseAutoGCSelectPolicy as these 2 flags are working together. However, JDK-8166461 is missing about deprecation of AutoGCSelectPauseMillis. 

Related code is like below:
if (UseAutoGCSelectPolicy &&
    !FLAG_IS_DEFAULT(MaxGCPauseMillis) &&
    (MaxGCPauseMillis <= AutoGCSelectPauseMillis))

Suggested release note comment: The flag AutoGCSelectPauseMillis has been deprecated and will be removed in the JDK 10 release.
