There is a known issue that causes build failure due to resource problem, which causes the `fastdebug` build fail in github workflow. Please see more related information in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8349399?focusedId=14749789&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-14749789.

I brought up this PR during today's hermetic Java meeting. There was a question asked about the time used for the static build job. Here is a comparison between `linux-x64-static` and existing `linux-x64` jobs in GHA:

- [linux-x64-static / build (release)](https://github.com/jianglizhou/jdk/actions/runs/13163673020/job/36738564072#logs): 29m 29s
- [linux-x64 / build (release)](https://github.com/jianglizhou/jdk/actions/runs/13163673020/job/36738560475#logs): 35m 16s
