There is also a general  little text in the configure help listing the  JVM 
features :


The following JVM features are valid as arguments to --with-jvm-features.
Which are available to use depends on the environment and JVM variant.
  cds                     enable class data sharing (CDS)
  compiler1               enable hotspot compiler C1
 ....
  zgc                     include the Z garbage collector


Maybe  some additional  info would fit there nicely ? E.g.

The following JVM features are valid as arguments to --with-jvm-features.
Enabling and disabling single  JVM features can be done with  
--enable-jvm-feature-<name> and  --enable-jvm-feature-<name>=no .
Which JVM features are available to use depends on the environment and JVM 
variant.
   ...
