1. Added a comment in the LauncherCommon.gmk, fixed typo
2. Added checks for spurious EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS, both as
compile time and runtime check, the latter for a good measure.
Thanks
Kumar
PS: Mandy, could you please file a RFE for the jlink requirements and
assign it to me.

Hello,
Please review the changes to fix JDK-8180334, essentially -DJAVA_ARGS exceeds
a Visual Studio C++ compiler limit, and this fix provides a way to specify
very long string literals, by the build system.
This also includes some minor and subtle simplifications and cleanups wrt.
the JAVA_ARGS and its handling.
Thanks

This is a reasonable short-term solution. As we discussed, we should
look into extending jlink to create the native launcher using @argfile
in a future release.
make/launcher/LauncherCommon.gmk
+# EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS Processed into a -DEXTRA_JAVA_ARGS and is prependedi
typo: s/prependedi/prepended
src/java.base/share/native/launcher/main.c
It may help to detect if main_jargc == 0 but extra_jargc > 0 and exit with
an error in case any bug in creating such a launcher.
