> Improvements to support OS specific customization for JDK internal use:
>  - To select values and code; allowing elimination of unused code and values
>  - Optionally evaluated by build processes, compilation, or archiving (i.e. CDS)
>  - Simple API to replace adhoc comparisons with `os.name`
>  - Clear and consistent use across build, runtime, and JDK modules
>  
> The PR includes updates within java.base to use the new API.
