RFR: JDK-8066474: Remove the lib/$ARCH directory from Linux and Solaris images

[Lindenmaier, Goetz]

Hi,

we appreciate this change a lot, and also if /server would go away.

I built and tested it on linuxppcle, aixppc and linuxs390.

There is still a place that refers to a removed variables
and breaks the build:
jdk/src/java.base/unix/native/libjli/ergo.c:94  LIBARCHNAME
You can probably just replace LIBARCHNAME by ARCH which is set to 
the same value.

I would propose to remove VM_CPU from hotspot/test/test_env.sh after you 
removed the last place where it is used.  (VM_BITS is dead, too.)

Best regards,
  Goetz.
