Add an MBean that an application can register to change the state of Derby's 
JMX management

                 Key: DERBY-3424
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3424
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
            Assignee: Daniel John Debrunner
            Priority: Minor


JMX in Derby was originally proposed as a mechanism to configure Derby 
replacing or enhancing the system properties which tend to be static in nature. 
Thus it is somewhat ironic that jmx is enabled with a static system property 
derby.system.jmx.

I propose to add a public mbean that allows the state Derby's JMX management to 
be changed. This bean is not automatically registered by Derby if 
derby.system.jmx is false, but instead can be registered by an application. I 
believe this could occur at any time so that JMX could be enabled on a running 
application, possibly by a remote client.

This standard Mbean (o.a.d.jmx.Management & ManagementMBean) would have these 
operations & attribute:

    public boolean isManagementActive();
    public void startManagement(); 
    public void stopManagement();

If Derby is not booted within the jvm then the operations would be no-ops.

If derby.system.jmx is true then Derby will itself register an mbean that 
implements ManagementMBean to allow dynamic control of the visibility of 
Derby's mbeans.
