These changes address bug 8014135 which adds support for statically

changes that addressed statically linked JNI libraries( 8005716).
The JEP for this change is the same JEP as the JNI changes:

I looked at the javadoc updates to the attach API.
One thing that doesn't come across very clearly is the mapping from the
agentLibrary parameter to "agent-lib-name". I think that needs a few
words so that it's clear that it is not literally looking for
"Agent_OnAttach_agent-lib-name" but rather "Agent_OnAttach" +
<agent-lib-name> where <agent-lib-name> is the library name in the
agentLibrary parameter.
As I recall, the JVM Tool Interface is supposed to be referred so as
"JVM TI" rather than "JVMTI".
Otherwise it looks okay to me.
