The build tool genSocketOptionRegistry.exe is always relinked on Windows
at every rebuild. This causes a long chain of unnecessary rebuilding,
completely destroying incremental build performance.
The underlying cause of this is the enabling of debug symbols everywhere
without properly handling the debug symbol flags for Windows.
SetupNativeCompilation in this case thinks debug symbols are to be
generated and sets up dependencies based on that, but the compile and
link command lines are not setup to generate them. Since they aren't
there, the linking is redone each build.
My fix removes -Zi from C*FLAGS_JDKLIB and -debug from LDFLAGS_JDKLIB
and adds them to the *FLAGS_DEBUG_SYMBOLS variables instead, just as
have been done for all other platforms. I also move the .pdb files
generated for object files to a separate sub directory to avoid name
clashes if a source file and the resulting executable/lib has the same name.
When running a compare build, sawindbg.dll differs on Windows x86
because it historically sets -ZI in CFLAGS, which is now overridden in
this patch. I very much doubt there is any need to use -ZI instead of
-Zi so also removing that flag from sawindb to not cause confusion about
what is actually in effect.
