Discuss: Prevent jlink runtimes from reading _JAVA_OPTIONS

[Bruno Borges]

In this Reddit discussion [1], the user complains that a jlinked runtime of their application, packaged with jpackage, was failing to some degree due to the environment variable _JAVA_OPTIONS being set somewhere else in the system.

I do agree with the user that a runtime shipped as a built-in component of a Java-based standalone application should not have its properties altered due to a magical environment variable.

I'd like to ask if it is reasonable to suggest that in the case of a jlinked runtime, this should not happen.
