JDK-8257852 - ☂ : Remove JNF dependencies from java.desktop module
Description
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8257852 discusses removing 
JNF dependencies from the desktop module. 

It would be good to also remiove the dependency from other areas 

jdk.hotspot.agent/macosx/native/libsaproc/MacosxDebuggerLocal.m uses these :

 NSString *symbolNameString = JNFJavaToNSString(env, symbolName);
JNF_COCOA_EXIT(env);
JNF_COCOA_ENTER(env);

Once we've established the right patten to replace these in reviews of desktop module changers we should update this serviceablity code in the same way
Comments
Fix request (11u) This is the last part of series for removing JNF dependency from jdk11u. Applies cleanly. Also needed for parity with oracle.
