8193072: File.delete() should remove its path from DeleteOnExitHook.files

[Brian Burkhalter]

There does appear to be a memory leak of sorts if one does something like

—

File[] files;
for (int i = 0; i < largeNumber; i++) {
    files[i] = File.createTempFile(“blah”, null);
    files[i].deleteOnExit();
}

// do something

for (int i = 0; i < largeNumber; i++) {
    files[i].delete();
}

// do something else before shutdown

—

The LinkedHashSet in DeleteOnExitHook will contain at least largeNumber Files 
until the VM shuts down even though the files were deleted.

The potential change is included below. The additional call to 
DeleteOnExitHook.remove() in File.delete() does not appear to have a measurable 
performance impact, at least trivially and in isolation.

Thanks,

Brian
