On Solaris libjimage.so has a weird extra runpath set, pointing into the
install directory of Solaris Studio.
JDK-8160630 changed libjimage to be compiled as C++ library as it should
be. I forgot to add the linker flags LDFLAGS_CXX_JDK to the LDFLAGS of
that library. All other C++ libraries in the JDK has these flags set. On
Solaris one of them is -norunpath, which seems to be the missing option
here.
Verified that the below fix results in a binary without the extra runpath.
