RFR(XS): 8211837: Creation of the default CDS Archive should depend on ENABLE_CDS

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Erik,

thanks for reviewing and sorry but I've already pushed this yesterday
evening before leaving because I wanted to fix our nightly builds.

I agree that the long line in jdk-options.m4 is ugly and I put it on
my TODO list. Taking into account the current cadence of AIX build
fixes I think it wont take long until I'll have to revisit that file
anyway :)

Regards,
Volker
