So we bootstrap the entire jdk? Something like this:
1) Build hybrid/bootstrap javac (includes zeromod + fake linking to jdk)
2) Build entire jdk (includes langtools) and jvm using this bootstrap javac.
   this jdk runs in legacy/classpath mode. But has enough modules (a single base module)
   to understand proper modules.
3) Build hybrid/bootstrap javac again! Now it does not need zeromod, it still needs genstubs fake linking though.
4) Build the entire jdk (includes langtools) and jvm using this second bootstrap javac.
   this jdk will have all modules!

Is this correct?
