Description
All flags that expire in JDK 23 should be removed from the special_jvm_flags table.

The Java manpage should also be updated as appropriate e.g. if a flag previously documented as obsolete is now expired we move it from the obsolete section to the "expired" section; and we remove the list of options listed as removed in the previous release (if any).

The following flags are expired in JDK 23: { "DoReserveCopyInSuperWord", JDK_Version::undefined(), JDK_Version::jdk(22), JDK_Version::jdk(23) }, { "UseCounterDecay", JDK_Version::undefined(), JDK_Version::jdk(22), JDK_Version::jdk(23) }, { "UseHugeTLBFS", JDK_Version::undefined(), JDK_Version::jdk(22), JDK_Version::jdk(23) }, { "UseSHM", JDK_Version::undefined(), JDK_Version::jdk(22), JDK_Version::jdk(23) }, Both UseHugeTLBFS and UseSHM were documented as obsoleted, so they are now documented as expired. There are no test changes needed.
