RFR: JDK-8036003: Add --with-debug-symbols=[none|internal|external|zipped]

[Yasumasa Suenaga]

Hi all,

I would like to propose JDK-8036003: Add --with-debug-symbols=[none|internal|external|zipped] .

I had posted this enhancement which provides new make variable [1].
But it does not fit current jdk 9. So I propose it again as new configure option.

I'm sure that this enhancement helps Linux distros to package OpenJDK.
For example, if you create RPM package of OpenJDK, you have to pass many make variables [2].

Could you review it?

Thanks,

Yasumasa
