In particular, we'll want to include all or part of the SLEEF sources in the JDK, but we'll likely also want some additional build scripts and documentation to make it easy for developers to reproduce and update going forward. This could probably be based on the README and createSleef script.

@vidmik @Hamlin-Li I kind of hijacked this... 

I created the necessary build system changes to update the generated sleef code. At that point, also importing the actual source code was just a trivial addition.

The new PR is here: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/20781

I think it implements everything we've talked about here, in the way I understood consensus to be.
