[wildfly-dev] MORE_JAVA_OPTS in standalone.sh

[Fernando Nasser]

Maybe the original intention was not to have the configuration done in 
the server at all, so a new .conf file will not accomplish that.

If that is the case I'd propose a WILDFLY_EXTRA_JAVA_OPTS to prevent 
mixing up with any generic JAVA_OPTS that may be set  (or our nice test 
for a stray JAVA_OPTS would be moot).
