8345629: Remove expired flags in JDK 25

[dholmes-ora]

All flags that expire in JDK 25 are removed from the special_jvm_flags table.

The Java command manpage is updated so that flags removed in the previous release are deleted from the "Removed flags" section and a link added to the previous release manpage. Any documented obsolete flags are moved to the "Removed section" from the "Obsoleted" section.

Testing: tiers 1-3 sanity

Thanks

Looks good.

I assume link to JDK 24 docs will be populated after JDK 24 release. Right?
