JDK 17	JDK 20
17.0.9-oracleFixed	20 b06Fixed

after all tests got migrated to use jdk.test.lib.whitebox (JDK-8271707), the old whitebox library (located in test/lib/sun/hotspot) should be removed.

Fix request [17u] I backport this for parity with 17.0.9-oracle. No risk, only a test change. Clean backport. Test passes. SAP nightly testing passed.
