Please review a big, but conceptually simple, change to convert JavaDoc tests to use text blocks where reasonable.

This is an "automated" change, albeit using a custom new utility program written for this specific purpose.  There are no manual edits to any test files. There should be no functional change in any test file.

The conversion program scans source files looking for candidates to convert into text blocks. Candidates are long strings containing '\n' or '"' characters.

Some tests contain very long strings, that previously were manually wrapped at arbitrary points in the string. The converter program wraps these very long strings (> 240 characters) every 80 characters. The fixed length of each "chunk" and trailing '\' helps provide a visual distinctive block of text for the long line. Note, this algorithm assumes there is no risk of breaking low-level Unicode sequences within the strings in the test files.
