Description
JDK-8056152 added a new constructor to java.lang.Thread to constructing Threads that do not 
inherit inheritable thread-local initial values. All usages of sun.misc.ManagedLocalsThread in 
the base module were also replaced with this new constructor. Given there is now a supported API 
for creating such threads, other areas of the JDK should be updated to use it, where applicable. If all 
usages are replaced, then sun.misc.ManagedLocalsThread can be removed.
Comments
jaxws is still standalone, so the new JDK 9 Thread constructor should be accessed reflectively. Additionally the use of s.m.MLT should remain ( reflectively ), when running on older JDKs.
