Not your mess, but trying to avoid it introduces more headaches. I am somewhat surprised we even have `static-libs-bundles` as additional target in what I would consider a generic `build-linux` job! It looks cleaner to yank `static-libs-bundles` into a separate build job, which would then allow your PR to proceed by just calling `build-linux` normally, without introducing a wholly new job script. Let me try to fix `static-libs-bundles` first.

Hey @jianglizhou, a quick question for you. There are two options for this PR:
  1. Build both `static-jdk-image` and `static-libs-bundle` in the same `linux-x64-static` job from #23715 
  2. Build `static-jdk-image` and `static-libs-bundle` in different jobs

Which one would you prefer? I would prefer to test all static stuff in a single job (1), unless you disagree? If we decide now, it would allow me to name the job in #23715 properly from the start.
