#1141 Remove SimpleProperties (use Properties instead)
Closed: migrated by dmoluguw. Opened by ftweedal.

A cursory examination of com.netscape.cmscore.base.SimpleProperties
cf. java.util.Properties reveals only two differences:
SimpleProperties' hashCode() and equals() methods take the `defaults'
into account, whereas Properties inherits this methods from
Java.util.HashTable.
The only place SimpleProperties is used is in SourceConfigStore
(which extends it), and the only place SourceConfigStore is used is
in PropConfigStore (protected SourceConfigStore mSource). Neither
PropConfigStore nor its subclasses invoke mSource.equals() or
.hashCode() so it seems - from this brief examination and without
the knowledge of history - it seems that we should be able to remove
SimpleProperties and use Properties instead.
