RFR: 8253909: Implement detailed map file for CDS

For analyzing the contents of a CDS archive, we need a "map file" that describes the archive in different levels of
detail. This can be done using unified logging. E.g.,

java -Xshare:dump -Xlog:cds+map=trace:file=cds.map:none:filesize=0

For example, we can use the map file for troubleshooting [JDK-8253495](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8253495)
(runtime/cds/DeterministicDump.java broken). We can diff two different cds.map files to see where the non-deterministic
contents come from.

See attachments in [JDK-8253909](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8253909) for example map files at the
info/debug/trace levels.
