In this new pr, just rebased the code in [1], then added some minor changes (renaming of calling method, add libsleef as extra lib in CI cross-build on aarch64 in github workflow); I aslo tested the combination of following scenarios:

Hello @PaulSandoz,
For various reasons, [previous pr](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/16234) and current pr are thought not good enough, so I did some exploration of [integrating sleef source into jdk](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/18294#issuecomment-2018839778), the solution itself is simple and maintainace is easy.

I saw in the previous discussion, you had some [comments about integrate sleef source into jdk](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/16234#issuecomment-1821885433).

I'm not sure if you're avaialbe to take a look and continue the discussion and share your opinions? If positive, we can start from [here](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/18294#issuecomment-2020986186).

Thanks!
