Recommendation: set java.awt.headless for analyzeHeadless #6859

When running analyzeHeadless from the command line (at least on macOS) a GUI is launched and steals UI focus. For batch scripting this is undesirable. I have added the following to analyzeHeadless and it works much better:

VMARG_LIST="$VMARG_LIST -Djava.awt.headless=true"

We used to have this. I forget why we took it out.
