Fixes #1147
This PR:
ModuleFinder,ModuleReaderandModuleDescriptorlinker/util/JavaRuntimeto point at an arbitrary JDK on the filesystem. This capability was never used and I assume it was part of the reason the linker poked around the filesystem for jmod files.JavaRuntimenow always represents the "current" java runtime that is running the linker.JavaRuntimeto represent the "built" custom JRI. This, combined with 2 greatly simplifies the class.With these changes I have verified the linker works with Temurin JDK 25 without jmod files.
