Pause object has a static ExecutorService that can't be shutdown #268

Description

@henri-tremblay

org.assertj.swing.timing.Pause has an ExecutorService. It's static and cannot be closed. It means that we have non-daemon threads hanging in there and preventing the JVM to finish.

An example is

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Pause.pause(new Condition("Cond") {
            @Override
            public boolean test() {
                return true;
            }
        });

        Field field = Pause.class.getDeclaredField("EXECUTOR_SERVICE");
        field.setAccessible(true);
        ExecutorService service = (ExecutorService) field.get(null);
        service.shutdownNow();
    }

Without the reflection code at the end, it won't exit for a while.

The easiest solution is to add a static close() method to shutdown the pool. But I think the best is to change the code to rely on the commonPool, e.g. ForkJoinPool.commonPool().submit() or a CompletableFuture.
