I also like this, stripping the native debug symbols, as a jlink plugin.
Currently jlink does not support platform-specific plugin. The
Plugin API will need
to be extended to specific the supported platforms, for example
Plugin::isSupported
and default to return true. jlink will need to filter the plugins
when it finds the plugin
providers. You can update PluginRepository to do the filtering and
see if that covers
all cases (I suspect so).
It might be simpler to move the plugin to src/jdk.jlink/linux/classes
and create a module-info.java.extra to augment the module-info.java file
in the build. If that works then it would reduce the build work to
augmenting plugin.properties at build time with platform specific resources.
