I have worked myself through the OpenJDK9 to
OpenJDK9-mobile differences and also compared both with
the OpenJDK11 source tree.

Hence I answer myself for now ..

To have a working Hotspot-Arm64 or better Hotspot-Aarch64
build, I have added the os_cpu/bsd_aarch64 code path also
to be used for iOS.

When I successfully have brought up this build on iOS,
I will publish these changes of course, using git.

The next step might be the migration to OpenJDK11
and maybe testing the AOT OpenJDK work later on (depending on GraalVM).
