JDK-6306922 - Dump dump created by +HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError should include stack traces for stack roots
Description
The HotSpot VM built-in heap dumper is enhanced to include the stack traces for all threads at the heap dump time.  See  6306922.

We should update jhat to present the thread dump information as well.  The current jhat can display the stack traces when the -stack option is specified to "true" e.g.
> jhat -stack true <heap-dump-filename>
Comments
EVALUATION Add a "Show all stack traces" link for easy browsing of thread dump
