We run
System.gc()
after shutting down Jenkins and deleting the Jenkins home directory, but by then it is too late on Windows: deleting the Jenkins home directory may have already failed due to open files held by class loaders. This PR solves the problem by moving the GC to before we delete the Jenkins home directory.
