I've forgotten the `JvmtiVTMSTransitionDisabler` is not going to work before 
the `notifyJvmtiEvents` is set to `true`. I agree, we may want to allow 
`start_VTMS_transition/finish_VTMS_transition` not properly paired as you 
suggest. But then it is not good that we loose the ability to strictly 
check/assert pairing of VTMS transition notifications for other cases. Need to 
think a bit more on this.
