RFR: 8264874: Build interim-langtools for HotSpot only if Graal is enabled

Many HotSpot developers make only the `hotspot` target, and copy the resulting `libjvm.so` into an already-build JDK image.

HotSpot requires `interim-langtools` only when Graal is enabled. When Graal is disabled, we can avoid building `interim-langtools`. This improves the build time of `make hotspot` by about 20 seconds, or about 15%:

Old:
$ make clean
$ time make hotspot
....
real 1m57.905s
user 42m22.524s
sys 3m7.372s

New:
$ make clean
$ time make hotspot
....
real 1m39.916s
user 41m59.984s
sys 3m3.188s
