8032456: vm/jni/Miscellaneous/misc001/misc00101m1/misc00101m1.html failing on OS X

[Alan Bateman]

I need a reviewer to fix an issue with the changes in JDK 8 to support 
statically linked JNI libraries. The issue arises with tests that have 
both JNI_OnLoad and JNI_OnLoad_libname functions defined, and code 
attempts to load the library more than once. In that scenario then both 
functions are called.

Staffan Larsen did the hard work in JDK-8031968 where he observed that 
dlopen(NULL, RTLD_LAZY) behaves differently on OS X and that we should 
be using dlopen(NULL, RTLD_FIRST) to get the handle of the main program. 
Staffan has fixed this in the hotspot repository for JVM TI agent 
libraries, we need to do the same in the libjava code used by 
ClassLoader's native methods.

Note that the include of string.h is not directly part of the issue 
here, instead it's just a drive-by fix to the warning related to the 
strcat usages.
