Bug#905575: OpenJDK 10 package size increased by 100MB (debug symbols)

 

The reason that libjvm.so is not stripped is, that jmap needs the debug
information to properly work. See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/574997

Afaics we cannot strip this library. jmod now copies that file, shipping it in
fact twice.  Sure, if we can get rid of the second copy, or ship the second copy
unstripped, then we can reduce the size. jlink isn't used for package building
so I assume we can live with that.
