Add comment to ProcessHandle/OnExitTest to describe zombie problem

        ProcessHandle/OnExitTest is vulnerable against misconfigured systems that do not reap zombies in a timely fashion. JDK-8284282 describes this problem in detail.

        Until we figure out a way to fix that (if at all - see comments in JBS), let us have a clarifying comment in the test itself to save developers time when analyzing these errors.
