There are static fields such as `JVMCIServiceLocator.cachedLocators` that need to be initialized [via reflection](https://github.com/oracle/graal/blob/30492c3f7847a13ae7f8dc50663a5a039e49a8e7/compiler/src/jdk.graal.compiler/src/jdk/graal/compiler/hotspot/libgraal/BuildTime.java#L175-L180) when building libgraal.

It also removes a few other public methods and fields that are no longer used by Graal. Given that only has qualified exports to Graal, a CSR is not needed.
