RFR: 8166189: Fix for Bug 8165524 breaks AIX build

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi,

the fix for https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8165524 breaks the AIX build as function dladdr is not available on AIX.

There already exist ports of that API in hotspot and awt. With the proposed change I duplicate the awt port to libjli. This is maybe only a quick fix - eventually we should think about consolidating and using the hotspot port in all places by exporting it from libjvm.so for AIX.

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8166189
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~clanger/webrevs/8166189.0/

Thanks
Christoph
