Creating a test harness for others to use with JBoss

Commit message from jboss-head:

Make a start on factoring out the JBossTest support classes.
__There is a JIRA task for this somewhere raised by Bill, but I can't find it.__

These classes are at least already used in aspects which raises build circularity problems.
i.e. aspects needs testsuite which in turn needs aspects to compile

Changes:
1) Core JBossTest classes moved to test module where they can be used by other modules (and eventually released for others to use to run tests against JBoss - we should probably also add some skeleton tests for others to fill in when reporting bugs/problems that need reproducing)
2) RMIAdaptor -> MBeanServerConnection

If there is agreement on the goals, I'll raise some JIRA tasks to complete this work.

Also if anybody knows where Bill's feature request is located, let me know.

I assume that part of this will be creating a JUnit runner which will start & stop a jboss instance before & after the test? The testsuite currently does this using Ant tasks to spawn the process and kill it afterwards.

And I know we want the crash/reboot capability.

I guess there are many levels to this. The first is just cleaning up the existing circular dependencies, the next is cleaning up the existing hardcoded behaviors like local file system, localhost expectations with some parameterization. Beyond that are many levels of additional functionality like the remoting based extension, the multi-server based tests I created issues for:
