GSSUtil.createSubject has outdated access control context and policy related text

      The method description of com.sun.security.jgss.GSSUtil.createSubject says:

      "Typically this would be done by a server that wants to impersonate a client thread at the Java level by setting a client Subject in the current access control context. If the server is merely interested in using a principal based policy in its local JVM, then it only needs to provide the GSSName of the client."

      This text should be updated to remove/replace "access control context" and "principal based policy" as those mechanisms are non-functional/removed as of JDK 24 with JEP 486 (Permanently Disable the Security Manager).
