Description
When we remove the SA options from jstack, jinfo, jmap, we should add a new launcher to run the same commands using SA.

The benefit of this is to make the difference between running SA and attach obvious to users. When running SA the process will actually be stopped in a non-deterministic state for a non-deterministic period of time. With attach it is a co-operative request to the JVM that is running. Users often run, for example "jstack -F" without understand the implications of this.
