This drops a dup check from addExtraReads that I assume should not be in 
this patch.

The rest of the jdk changes look okay. One suggestion for 
getExtraAddModules is to just return Collections.emptySet or Set.of when 
the first getAndRemoveProperty returns null. We're in the interpreter 
during this early start so everything counts.
