Certain downstream consumers of the JDK need to link to parts of it
statically. To support this usecase, this patch adds a set of optional
make targets that produce static native libraries for a selection of
modules. These static libraries do not end up in the main JDK
distribution but are instead packaged in a separate bundle that can be
optionally overlayed on top of a JDK bundle. The new targets are only
built when requested and are not added as dependencies on any existing
target.
