Information about a VM option including its value and where the value came from which is referred as its origin. 
 Each VM option has a default value. A VM option can be set at VM creation time typically as a command line argument to the launcher or an argument passed to the VM created using the JNI invocation interface. In addition, a VM option may be set via an environment variable or a configuration file. A VM option can also be set dynamically via a management interface after the VM was started. A VMOption contains the value of a VM option and the origin of that value at the time this VMOption object was constructed. The value of the VM option may be changed after the VMOption object was constructed,
