Description
The JDI spec defines a "THREAD_STATUS_NOT_STARTED" status, but this value
seems to be missing from the JVMDI and JDWP specs.

Not only that, but the JDI code will never return this status.
Work Around
N/A
Evaluation
This requires a spec change.  Values for not-started will have to be added
to JVMDI and JDWP, and the JVMDI implementation will have to be changed
to return the new not-started status instead of JVMDI_THREAD_STATUS_UNKNOWN.

This has been fixed in JVMTI.  We aren't making any changes to JVMDI so
it won't be fixed there.  See also:
