This PR fixes issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8308407

It ensures that the C compilation of abstract_vm_version.o generates a minimum 64byte static C const for vm_vendor, thus ensuring for most Vendor builds the object has a 64byte string char array.

Since this is just a nul terminated string as before, just within a fixed 64byte location, and should a longer Vendor string be specified it will be longer, there is no change in behavior. It purely provides a fixed 64byte string array in the compiled object, which for most if not all Vendors will be sufficient.
