Summary:  Implement AccessController.getContext

Original Submission:  This patch implements 
java.security.AccessController.getContext, by defering the getContext call to a 
new class, VMAccessController. Most of the logic is already implemented, 
leaving the only method for a VM to implement getStack, which returns the 
current Thread's call stack as a pair of lists: classes and method names.

VMs can possibly take advantage of the design of VMAccessController, including:

  - Using pushContext and popContext more effectively.
  - Modifying getContext for the semantics of that VM's stack idiosyncrasies.

Also included is a simple domain combiner that produces the intersection of two 
sets of protection domains, and an implementation of Policy that parses 
plain-text description files, similar to those used by Sun's JDK.

(comments and critiques welcome)
